+ADDED BY nestu
+TOPIC: Tarballs size
+Add an option to show the size of a module's tarball, This can be done 
+via lvu for example (e.g. lvu size <module>) and at "lin" time to know how much 
+is doing to be DLed. This way it can be known previously if the download is 
+worth it (time speaking for example) or if there is a better alternative 
+(another module that can provide the same functionality with less dependencies). 
+It would require resolving dependencies for all modules before any action is 
+taken, in the case of lin. The module size could be useful for a lvu tree, a lvu 
+depends, if wanted (secondary to lin's use). As pointed out on IRC, this could 
+be achieved by an extra field in DETAILS, for example, or in moonbase, to keep 
+things centralised.
