This hack of a patch will add prevout to 'gettransaction', which you can lookup on Block Explorer even before your transaction confirms, to see your sending address.

Code:

diff --git a/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp b/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp
index 09be73a..9c6edf3 100644
--- a/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp
+++ b/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp

+entry.push_back(Pair("prevout", wtx.vin[0].prevout.ToString()));

     WalletTxToJSON(pwalletMain->mapWallet[hash], entry);
 
     Array details;

I suggest people who can't figure this all out, post your transaction ID

Your guys' call. We've got plenty to do at BitTalk.TV to not worry about this, but if you think a "Most Promising of 2012" awards ceremony would be better, I'll reformat to that instead.

I think 2012 should be done in a year, and 2011 now. :p
