I do. Almost always in fact. When I want to install a package, I use --ask with --verbose so I get the --pretend output, and if I agree with the proposed list of dependencies and USE-flags, I allow it to proceed with just two keystrokes instead of having to go back up, change the command, and wait the extra time for it to recalculate the dependencies.
Not a huge savings, but I do use it, and I would expect news items to be displayed right before the prompt where I can't miss them -- # # electronerd, the electronerdian from electronerdia #
