The question is: to where do you want to read the progress?

Most clients, however show you the amount of bytes already
sent to the server, this should be informal enough.

For every other approach, there is simply no channel in the
HTTP-protocol to output the information to.

So the question about how to get the information is completely
secondary :-)

IF you want to watch uploads for debugging purpose, and files
are huge, you can try "lsof" in the temp directory.
