Percent done won't tell you how much time is left. It will give you an
indicator of how far along the process is. 

Just because its not in a window doesn't mean its not useful. 

What are are asking for is something that will tell you how long the
process will take, in hours/minutes/seconds. I would guess this would be
pretty damn hard.
