I haven't looked into your code to know how it really works, but the
progress handling code should provide some kind of 'hook' mechanism
for application like TortoiseHg to redirect/intercept the progress
info, so they may be displayed in way that suits the application.
TortoiseHg connects to Mercurial internal via it's 'API'.
