Kishore from JIRA comments:
```
Yes, thats the idea. With helix-ipc this will be possible rt? This can be
extended to write rebalancers that talk to nodes to get the high water mark
to decide new master. what do you think?
```
Jason from JIRA comments:
```
Yes. Helix-IPC will do the job. We can also extend the idea to get high
water mark, etc. Helix task frame exposes Task interface, so users are not
implementing StateModel directly. How can we make this available to Task
also?
```
> add getProgress() to Task interface

> Add a getProgress to the Task interface, this is very helpful for long
> running tasks, from which we know the status of a task and see if it's
> blocked. The return value is a double, ranging from 0 to 1.0, 1.0 indicates a
> task is finished
