Description
**Problem/context:** During migrating from other sources and testing I write, delete, and modify larger amounts of data (~1Gb line protocol). It is a bit discomforting not to see any progress (bar, percentage, acknowledge) when issuing a long running influx command. There is also no result like ‘OK’ or ‘successful’ at the end.
**Proposal:** Include a verbose flag that provides the status of the request as well as an `OK` result at the end.
Thank you!

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the Influx CLI command path used for large write, delete, and modify requests and its existing output handling; then identify how a verbose flag could report request status and completion. Done means the selected commands provide progress or status during long requests and print an OK or successful result at the end.
