The thing is that some people like to have a fine-grained progress bar, hence long in order to handle very long tracks. There is a bug [1] discussing that. I personnality tried implementing some non-linear progress scale, to make it both small and precise. I have some experimental code, I even thought at some time it was usable but that's no longer the case: the UI turned out to be pretty awkward to use.
