I would suggest to do the opposite. Since percentage output is there,
it would be helpful to
- vector: put e.g. most of the many topology related messages
(v.clean, v.in.ogr) into verbose,
- raster: do the same for candidates like r.watershed, many messages...

==> But then tell the user what has been produced!

The point is: if you run stuff on command line/in batch jobs, you want
to know the outcome, not how many tiny interim steps have been done.
Sure I can scroll back but GRASS could also simply tell me.

Just my 0.02 cents (from my teaching experience with GIS experts but
GRASS newbies),
