    Even if you move to the end, you can't tell if the command is done 

Why not?  Isn't there some text that appears at the end when the command
is finished?  If not, let's add some.

    No, it's not for all buffers, just for buffers that VC uses to execute
    commands that can take a long time.

I have no objection to that, but adding text at the end when it finishes
also seems like a good idea.
