What are the general plans here? I'd like to see the specific issue fixed in a 
good way. Having the new default method on IProgressMonitor seems like a clean 
approach. However, I tend to agree that this is a big change (in terms of 
impact).

Are there any plans to have another major version? What are the main concerns 
in that area?
