The total download size is reported since commit 
d9bad2f08296fa73b967973aa6648d24c100980f.

Diplaying the ‘installed size’ of a random (substitutable) subset 
doesn't really make sense.

Closing,

As suggested by Andy on #guix, ‘guix package -i’ and similar—i.e., the
‘show-what-to-build’ procedure in (guix ui)—should display the installed
and downloaded size of the items that will be fetched.
