Yeah the idea was to let ports have more choice in deciding what the definition of "progress" is.

There are a few options:
  1) Monitor changes in buffered() TimeRanges (would this be sufficient?)
  2) Ask ports for a loading percentage (a more abstract version of what we have today)
  3) Ask ports a "did you progress since the last time I asked you?" method (what you propose here)

While (3) is a bit more complex I believe the added flexibility is warranted here. Monitoring changes in buffered() as well as a load percentage assumes that the underlying port is actually buffering. For example, what would a port report in (1) and (2) if it was an infinite live stream?
