Unfortunately, the variable isn't available here, as it is only defined 
in port1.0.

Unrelated to this GSoC project, I think it might be a good idea to 
remove this from the internal libraries at all and give the control of 
presentation to the UI. For the command line this is port/port.tcl.

A ui_phase could be used to output a message on a special level and the 
UI client would add the representation.
