for my part: I like the navigation features of aptitude, e.g. in the details view of a package, I can follow one of the dependencies and get to the details view of that package. Lots of interconnections: I search for 'fubar', get a list of ports that contain files or directories containing fubar as a substring along with their status. From there, one click to installation or detail view. Maybe 'view all files'. Optional display of active/inactive variants. Show if there's something to clean up (work files, tarballs, ...). Check for updates (selfupdate). If you have used MacPorts, you will surely come up with more ideas.
