Comment (by Workshopshed):

 Image processing in it's own loop so we get a progress bar on that now.

 Partial fix to pesky Wikipedia link in that it works the first time the
 image is used but if you repeatedly have links for the form:

 {{{
 <a href="http://www.oldsite.com/linktohtmlpage.jpg">
      <img src="http://www.oldsite.com/linktoimage.jpg">
 </a>
 }}}

 Then the first link will be correctly handled with the anchor tag not
 being changed as it's not a valid image. But any subsequent ones will
 change the anchor to point at the large version of the image already
 downloaded. It would be possible to fix this by always downloading the
 large image but as that's the slowest step it's good to avoid that.

 _js_vars function is outstanding, that needs updating, as per previous
 comment.

 New issue (which I think has been there all along) in that the status bars
 don't see to update reliably, the jQuery is making an Ajax call off to the
 status function as it's always done but that's not returning the "current"
 values. The result is that the progress bars are jerky, maybe updating
 every few seconds rather than one each call.The data returned is the data
 displayed it's just that the data is out of date, perhaps something to do
 with caching of the options?

 The javascript has been "I18n"ed so you can make "%d of %d" in your own
 language. The pot file has not yet been updated.
