Callbacks or support for 'non blocking'

There are some functions that process files:
AddPackFile() , md5 calculations, ftp file transfers, etc.
It would be nice if there could be a callback specified so we can update a progress bar/status on the process.
Failing a callback; a 'non blocking' parameter and then a "GetStatus()" type function.

Like the 'Asynchronous' parameter in SendMail()?

no, like a callback or way to obtain the current status.
