I think that folks will have to learn to accept "good enough" in their
digital work. It is like writing, you can work it over and over and over
forever. You have to learn when to stop and say "good enough". For
instance is a photo like this "good enough" for eBay (maybe 5 minutes
total time in Photoshop)?

Funny question, isn't it?
Some may want results quickly, others may not. Why don't you ask the
customers?
IMO digital workflow is not really faster - well that depends on how much
after processing/editing is necessary.
Some times I want to go back to film - it was so much easier. I spend hours
and hours at the computer now, trying to get things right. A couple of years
ago I just gave the film to the lab and then picked up nice photographs a
few days later. Those days are gone!
The speed isn't the main advantage to digital. The low cost and the option
to quickly check if you got what you wanted.
If you really know what yoiu are doing, film is actally faster - and - if
you count your working hours, pehaps even cheaper :-).

Emne: Portrait Photography Question ...
A question for those who are doing portrait photography:
Do you find that it's important for your subjects to get their results
quickly, and that a digital workflow is important in that regard, or is
turn-around time not a big concern, and would film work just as well for
you as far as the needs and preferences of your subjects are concerned?
