Progress bar is cool but...

[glennhickey]

It requires the terminal to be reset when run in a screen session. Also, for cactus anyway, it spends the vast majority of the runtime at 99%/100%.

The reset issue might be the same as Rockhopper-Technologies/enlighten#16 which was closed for insufficient information. Maybe we can pick that back up.

The bar is going to spend most of its time almost done because it can only see the issued jobs. If we want it to use not-yet-ready-to-run jobs in the denominator we need an efficient way to get those from the job store, without walking the whole stored tree and with some notion of completed, deleted jobs, which I think we don't have.

@glennhickey, do you still see the issue with enlighten 1.5.2?

[glennhickey]

Upgrading to 1.5.2 does seem to fix it. Thanks @avylove -- this seems like a simple patch for toil then..
