Explanation for Lack of this Feature?
== Upload progress bar ==
It's insane that pretty much every piece of software out there that uploads data to a server has an upload & a download progress bar.  Whenever submitting a form with enctype="multipart/form-data" and an input with type='file'.  A progress bar should show up, and show the percentage of the upload/post progress.  The hacks a web designer has to go through to get a progress bar are hideous, and are not cross-platform/browser compatible.  This would be a killer feature, because file/post sizes are getting bigger and bigger, plus it would save thousands if not millions of collective hours for web developers instead of creating some double connect ajax hack.  I beg of you as a web developer PLEASE ADD THIS.  If just 1 browser added it, and touted this feature, almost all others would be sure to follow.
