I want to be able to see which packages are being downloaded and at what
progress. I don't really care whether they are at the top of the list or not -
as long as I can reasonably quickly find the package I'm interested in.
Alphabetic order gives me that.

What currently happens is e.g. if you have 5 packages that are being downloaded
at roughly the same rate, percent-wise, they are constantly shuffling in the
list - so fast that I actually can't tell which package is which. This kind of
output is not informative at all. This behavior is inherent to the ordering by
the progress percentage, which is why I'm asking to stop using that metric for
ordering the packages.
