Details

currently, exthandler gets the progressMax value manually from the content
length... it would be nice if it could be an nsIProgressEventSink. That likely
needs changes in uriloader.

See also bug 228968 comment 124 and the next one.
Doesn't exthandler put the request in its own loadgroup?  Shouldn't changing
loadgrourps change where progress events go to, maybe?  That is, can't we just
observe progress on our loadgroup?
actually it sets the loadgroup to null these days. you can't set
notificationCallbacks after a channel has been opened currently... and setting
the loadgroup does not affect that either.
