When you come back into onTimeOut, this logic should figure out where
to start from. You can get the current progress bar value with
get_fraction() IIRC.

Is there a reason you're passing the progress bar to the error dialog?

You should just be able to call back to onTimeOut unless I'm missing
something important.  The progress bar will know what fraction its at,
but its your job to tell it how to update, which includes continuing
from 25% or what not.
