Yes PLEASE!  This would really help keep track of where all that hard
disk space is going.  My :user folder has 25 folders in it.  I like to
check sizes from time to time before doing backups to see if anything
is getting out of hand (usually an indication of saving too many intermediate
forms of a project).  Doing Select All; Get Info works, but isn't the most
convenient way to go through it.
