I am sorry to not reply earlier...
The next step (non default) can be interactive run of portmaster for
beginers with questions like:
# portmaster php5-extensions
The following ports will be updated or installed
as part of update of php5-extensions:
[there will be similar list as above]
Do you really want to continue the update? Y/N:
Funny you should mention that. :) The current svn version of portmaster
(users/dougb/portmaster) has this exact feature, and it's almost ready
to be committed to the port. It's currently on by default, and I just
need to add a knob to disable it, and some code to override it if the
only thing to do is the one port the user specified on the command line.
I may get to that today, but $REALLIFE has been kicking my *hrmph*
lately, so it may not be done till the weekend. I would appreciate it if
you would give that a look and tell me if it suits your needs. It's
likely that once I'm 100% convinced that this new feature is the right
way to go that I will drop the --show-work option altogether.
I upgraded to portmaster-2.17 with this new feature and it is really nice!

Thank you very much for this feature and your ongoing work on the
portmaster!
One little idea to next improvement (and next work for you ;])
There can be some configuration variable / env. variable to control the
situation when "proceed" question will be asked:
1] always
2] only if something new will be installed
3] never
And one more question - how hard (for you / portmaster) is to monitor
changes of dependencies before/after upgrade of some port? It can be
useful if portmaster can report dependencies which will not be needed
after upgrade (as part of the final report = after "The following
actions were performed" list)
