 I'd like to have a port action which allow me to uninstalll
 a port and its dependencies.

 Please take a look at below.
 Currently there's no way to uninstall python25 and all
 py25-ports at once. The new action would, in this case, removes
 listed py25-ports and its dependencies recursively and finally uninstalll
 python25.
 {{{
 sudo port uninstall python25
 --->  Unable to uninstall python25 2.5.2_1+darwin_7, the following ports
 depend on it:
 --->    py25-numeric
 --->    py25-lxml
 --->    py25-xml
 --->    py25-zlib
 --->    py25-hashlib
 --->    py25-readline
 --->    py25-formencode
 --->    py25-sqlobject
 }}}
