How do we represent HTTP POST?

State:

CLOSED

Product:

Progress Event

Raised by:

Description:

POST can upload a pile of stuff, and then download a body. So there are 
two parts of the transaction whose progress would be useful to track. 
Further, these are in principle synchronous, and you don't know 
anything at all about the second part until you have finished the first 
one.

Are there other problems of this nature? Is the best solution to make 
this the problem of XHR and similar specs that allow this situation, or 
to provide something in the progress spec?
