updating progress to user during long handler

[Phil Davis]

Hi James,

I find it sometimes helps to lock & unlock the screen right after 
updating a progress bar, when it's part of a long process at least. Or 
throw in a "wait 0 seconds" right after it - that can help too. It seems 
the OS sometimes needs a reminder that it's time for it to update the 
screen.

Thanks -
Phil
