If "pkg install -n" were to tell you that a reboot would be required (as
Venky had mentioned earlier), then in order to use that in a script, the
output of the command would need to be Committed, hence parseable in some
form.  If all you care about is human-readable messaging, then I don't see
any problems with it.

(This is not to say that we shouldn't have, or even that we don't need, a
parseable form of install -n; I'm just not sure whether that should be a
separate option or something else entirely.)
