PHP version 5.2 adds support in getting uploaded data size during file uploads.

Is now possible to create true progress meter which indicates how many KB of the file
still needs to be uploaded.

This should be relatively easy to add support for. The JS is all there.

You still need a PHP extension for that.

chx, you are right...

And obviously we could not expect people to have that extension installed.

However I would like to leave this one as postponed: this is a key feature for PHP
and I'm almost sure that we will have support for this in PHP core.

Then we will be able to use it on Drupal.
