The progress callback has no idea where the data ends up. In fact, only the
actual function that writes the data knows that...

It should indeed work. Can you show us a small example using a progress
callback that doesn't work?

Anyone else experienced problems with this?

That's possible too, but the progress callback gets some other info that
isn't available in the write function, like the expected download size.
