Amazing!

It would be really nice if subports were grouped together. Having 7
ports listed for each perl module is an overkill in most cases. It
just contributes to the number of ports ending up spread across 414
pages.

Like others, I would also suggest to:
- allow one to see more ports on the page (I wouldn't mind having
hundred per page ;)
- instead of numbering the pages as [1] [2] [3] ... [414] for listing
the ports it would be really useful to have alphabetical sorting
[A-Alg][Ali-Any]...

Yes, that would be great. I would add
   * History of builds on the buildbots (links to them and whether
they were successful or not) (nice to have; a lot more work)

But a link to browser on trac does what 90% users need/want.
