It may be useful to (have an option to) show the date/timestamp of the most recent block height while syncing the blockchain, similar to how the GUI in Bitcoin Core does it. For example:
Blocks remaining: 17,502 (24 days behind)Blocks remaining: 3,717,015 (2014-04-18)
This is already done in info logs in monerod, IIRC. I guess it could either be an option or the default behaviour, depending on whether there's space (?)
