It seems that in recent builds of Webkit these events are no longer ProgressEvents, but rather generic Events with type "progress". They no longer contain the "loaded" and "total" attributes. Is this an intentional change?

Yes, this is intentional, and reflects a change in the HTML5 specification. See <https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30513> for details.
