want to observe the upload percentage of a file upload from GWT.

In JavaScript you can use a XMLHttpRequest and add an event listener like 
this:

var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

oReq.upload.addEventListener("progress", updateProgress, false);
// progress on transfers from the server to the client (downloads)
function updateProgress (oEvent) {
  if (oEvent.lengthComputable) {
    var percentComplete = oEvent.loaded / oEvent.total;
    // ...
  } else {
    // Unable to compute progress information since the total size is unknown
  }}

(The above code is from 
here<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest/Using_XMLHttpRequest>
.)

This is also done very easily in jQuery as:

 var $request = $.ajax({
      xhr: function() {
        xhrNativeObject = new window.XMLHttpRequest();
        //Upload progress
        xhrNativeObject.upload.addEventListener("progress", function(event) { 
... }
      }
 });

I want to do the same with GWT. I could use a 
RequestBuilder<http://www.gwtproject.org/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/http/client/RequestBuilder.html>
 to 
send a request, but this is only a high level wrapper around the 
XMLHttpRequest JavaScriot object. Another possibility would be to use the 
GWT 
XMLHttpRequest<http://www.gwtproject.org/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/xhr/client/XMLHttpRequest.html>
 class 
which is a JSNI wrapper of the JavaScript XMLHttpRequest.

My problem:

*How can I add a progress listener to the XMLHttpRequest or the 
RequestBuilder?*
