Looking at the XX-6524 [1], I'd like to hear a little bit more about how
the feature will work first.

Having a "progress bar" means that there will be some meaningful
feedback on the progress of the update.  i.e. % complete at periodic
intervals.

Most users would expect this to be real-time progress feedback.  

Some progress bar implementations actually just cheats that by estimate
how long it will take, show arbitrary progress as time passes, then
stall at 99% until the job is finished.  That is only as useful as the
accuracy of the initial estimation. 

The problem is that it'll be very difficult to get accurate estimates or
real-time progress feedback from the existing sipx-swadmin.py script
output.


Let's consider the simple approach: Just show the output of the
sipx-swadmin.py script.
