Just so you know, there is no equivalent to the Maya functionality where the viewport itself can display this info for all the geometry being displayed or (multi-)selected -which is a feature quite useful especially to modelers. As described above, it can only be queried node by node.

I was thinking the closest thing might be a shelf tool that could pop up some totals in a displayMessage() window… a slower/poorer substitute for the viewport just making its own totals. Anyone want to write one?
However, it would be nice to have simple entity totals as a viewport HUD widget and possibly more involved totals (which might not be instantaneous to calculate) in the viewport (i) info button.
I know that with heavy models with lots of groups and attributes, the opinfo can easily take 20 seconds to query up the bboxes, etc. In the past I've RFE'd a simple entity count alternative to the complete opinfo to improve interactivity in these cases. (I wonder if that RFE got logged?)
