Window or *Windows*? I don't really see how job/task progress relates to window-specific metadata, but I suppose the framework's description will make that clear.

And for the record: I think I've already said it but I'm all for putting this sort of thing in a framework or library where it can serve other applications as well. I only won't have much opportunity to do much development for the next couple of weeks.
