Progress bar

Issue: I can't see the status of any search-replace commands as they are executing

Right now I'm running a search-replace command (as a regular expression) against the postmeta table which has around 1 million rows. This is pretty slow (which obviously has nothing to do with this command in itself) but I'd love some kind of feedback as to the progress of the command.

For reference the command is:

wp search-replace '\/vid-dodsfall\/(.)+' '/begravning/$1' --regex wp_postmeta

Solution: I'd love to see a progress bar indicator for this command

I would guess that the majority of use cases for search-replace are something along the lines of

wp search-replace https://live.com https://local.com

This can take a wee while on a larger database and I'd love to have some indication of progress.

I agree, it would be nice. I searched Google if there was a way to do it and landed here.
