+*
+* @param finished
+*   A callback to be used when the batch finishes.

+* @param init_message
+*   An initial message to be displayed to the end user when the batch starts.
+*
+* @param progress_message
+*   A progress message for the end user. Placeholders are available.
+*   Placeholders note the progression by operation, i.e. if there are
+*   2 operations, the message will look like:
+*    'Processed 1 out of 2.'
+*    'Processed 2 out of 2.'
+*   Placeholders include:
