No joking, actually.  There's no reason you can't utilize this to produce a 
perfectly serviceable progress bar within Growl via coalesced notifications, 
which exist to let a single notification be updated over time.

The basic limitation is that we are not going to provide custom controls, or 
even standard non-text controls, within Growl notifications.  Even if it could 
be done in a seamless and attractive fashion, the elevated level complexity is 
simply out of the scope of what we're interested in as a team and a project.
