I don't think threading will help here, the problem is that the
progress information is not available.
If you are transferring from A to B and can find the size of
the file at A and poll the size at B you can display progress.
OTOH if that is not available you can still use a thread to
indicate that *something* is happening even if you don't
know when it will stop. Thus a threaded approach works
for providing some kind of user feedback even if nothing
else.
