After a discussion with Mark Leith yesterday I decided to modify my import progress patch to have an option to turn it on/off.

This new patch adds a --show-progress parameter to the MySQL client which is disabled by default.  This is because there may be utilities or scripts using the MySQL client and capturing stderr output, the original patch would create some mess in this situation.  To use the new patch you can do:

shell> mysql --show-progress < importfile.sql

Fantastic, I never thought of adding it to Drizzle as well. Hopefully I will have more useful stuff soon.
