Oh, so it's not about file_get_contents itself but about HTTP streams with a context that
includes data to send.

When using file_get_contents, the HTTP Request data is written to the socket first before the stream
notify hooks will begin to fire. I believe this to be true with other streaming functions as well.
There are currently no stream notify hooks to capture upload progress when performing a POST.
I've never seen an instance of file_put_contents used to POST data, which I believe you are
alluding to, and I believe it would be prone to the same issue.

I'm probably missing something, but why would file_*get*_contents have *upload* progress?

Description:
------------
Currently, file_get_contents supports download progress feedback via the notification hook
STREAM_NOTIFY_PROGRESS. However, file_get_contents does not support upload progress hooks to provide
feedback to the system or user when performing an HTTP POST using a large data set.
