I can do this, but progress reporting only makes sense when
there's a noticeable delay.  I'm genuinely curious: For those
people on the list with older hardware and/or many open buffers,
with the progress messages removed, does a failed dabbrev-expand
take more than an instant?  It didn't for me, with 80 or so
buffers and average hardware.
