Could Compute operation emit 'running' event?

It seems that the operation object can only emit 'complete' and 'error' events. I think it would be great if the object could also emit 'running' or similar event that indicate the 'RUNNING' status in all Operation resources.
A use case example for that feature is to show users that the instance is in the process of creation. It can be done manually by the method similar toOperation.prototype.startPolling_ but since there already is the function for that job, it should not be re-implemented.

How about progress events?

operation.on('progress', function(progress, metadata) {
  // progress = 80;

  // metadata = {
  //   kind: 'compute#operation',
  //   id: '...',
  //   status: 'RUNNING',
  //   progress: 80,
  //   ...
  // };
});

It sounds great! It will be much easier to implement progress tracking feature with 'progress' event.
Thank you for your fast response.
