I’d like to see something like this too. Mark Huot has something started with his file extension, but as far as I can see it doesn’t give any real feedback as to file size or time remaining.

I don’t know how easy it would be to integrate with EE, but have you looked at the flash based progress uploaders? There are a couple out but i can only remember http://www.swfupload.org/

I haven’t really looked into it too much, flash or ajax, I’m not sure which would be better. I see swfupload is a plugin for drupal. Perhaps it could be an add-on of some sort for EE.

I remember looking at ajax vs flash a while ago and I think i came to the conclusion that flash progress bars seemed to be better. They seem to be used more on high profile sites compared to ajax based solutions.
Looking at a few websites it seems Friendster.com is using fancyUpload, and vimeo.com is using SWFupload. I think youtube also uses flash but I think they developed it themselves.

This would be really great to have. I know Mark’s got something in the works
