Do you really think it's important to print this?  I personally would
appreciate that we don't do this, because this info is not such important.  Or
in other words: For consistency, either print also similar things or print
none of them. But just to print the port is confusing IMHO.

Good eye, Ralf! :-)  Agreed. This is simply a replication of what the
person typed on the command line! Why print what they already know?

+1 on nuking the "echo" line.
