To follow up: This report wasn't about that it can't figure out the size, it was that \
when it doesn't know the size, show the elapsed time instead of remaining. Reasoning \
is it seems almost unnatural for the size to increase and that if a file shows its \
status as 100% the user thinks its done. For instance what happens if the user gets a \
file that kde can't figure out its size, and the download stalls for a few seconds? \
The user thinks its done clicks cancel and then doesn't know why the file isn't \
complete. I'm not sure if the progress bar has the ability to do an unknown \
percentage (similar to that of firefox's, the bouncing bar) But that would be \
prefeared also. I understand this dialog is to be changed drastically in kde4, which \
I'm not sure on the status of it yet. perhaps this report can be closed as this is \
already addressed.
