Daniel, v$session_longops, perhaps? (at least for the sort operation). I'd run a test, but stomach tells me otherwise. There is a window in OEM, if you edit the session, that will show a progress bar. methinks that it is hitting v$session_longops under the hood. pretty easy to see which sql (in v$sql) belongs to OEM, as it is hinted with "OEM" in it.
