Comment (by hamish):

 input can be piped from stdin, which is open-ended. So a progress bar
 isn't appropriate. r.in.xyz does some checks to see what kind of input is
 involved before checking filesize and rewinding, then using G_clicker()
 instead of G_percent(), but really for v.in.ascii IMO I don't think it's
 worth the trouble.
