For the use I had in mind, I don't think the block numbers are of any use yet.
As you say, a following step would be to implement partial insertions. At that
point it would be interesting to give feedback on the mapping

I'm not sure I understand this. Does this mean that now a client does not
receive at all SimpleProgress for "old" (resumed) inserts?

Right, I can look into doing this, when the vulnerability issue is clarified.

What about Florent concerns? I didn't think of that when preparing the patch.
If this is a problem, I guess freemulet ad-hoc solution will suffer from the
same vulnerability.
