/**
* nsIProgressEventSink
*
* This interface is used to asynchronously convey channel status and progress
* information that is generally not critical to the processing of the channel.
* The information is intended to be displayed to the user in some meaningful
* way.
*
* An implementation of this interface can be passed to a channel via the
* channel's notificationCallbacks attribute. See nsIChannel for more info.
*
* The channel will begin passing notifications to the progress event sink
* after its asyncOpen method has been called. Notifications will cease once
* the channel calls its listener's onStopRequest method or once the channel
* is canceled (via nsIRequest::cancel).
*
* NOTE: This interface is actually not specific to channels and may be used
* with other implementations of nsIRequest.
