Title:
  GParted should use fine progress indicator for long operations

Status in Gnome Partition Editor:
  Confirmed
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When running partition check in GParted (Hardy) on my 1.5TB disk partition,
  it takes about 3 hours to complete and all the time I can see only "0 of 1 operations completed".
  It would be nice to see % number of that operation. User cannot guess if it would take
  minutes, hours or days.

  In GParted "Detail" output I can see that it uses "e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sd??" command.
  Manual page of e2fsck says that "-C" option can be used to get progress information.
  Could it be used by GParted?
