Yes, we could do that... Erik's patches add the sub/ line and changes
the sorting of the status output from

   M sub1/a
   M sub2/x
   A sub1/b
   A sub2/y

to this, where we sort by subrepo:

   M sub1/
   M sub1/a
   A sub1/b
   M sub2/
   M sub2/x
   A sub2/y

With your suggestion we can have

   M sub1/
   M sub1/a
   M sub2/
   M sub2/x
   A sub1/
   A sub1/b
   A sub2/
   A sub2/y

Where we first sort by state and then by subrepo. It does lead to quite
a few mentions of each subrepository, though.
