Curt,
 Thats a very valid point. But as it was stated before, the average user does not 
understand what is happening. I also feel that we should not have to hack for this 
functionality.
When you place a file on a webpage to be downloaded, the meter just happens, and you 
don't have to even think about it. My proposal to include this at the HTTP spec level 
would solve all the problems presented. Then we could get on with fun sh*t like 
skinning the meter and making Apache 2 and PHP 5 thread safe so we can all upgrade.

IMHO, the client should be responsible for tasks like this. Its a
shame we have to hack things to tell the client how much the client
has sent.
