I'm currently using the storbinary method for transferring files, how can I get some indication that I've transferred xx% of the file, or 100,000 bytes so far?

Just define your own version of storbinary in your module:

def mystorbinary(self, cmd, fp, blocksize):
  '''Store a file in binary mode and print stuff.'''
  self.voidcmd('TYPE I')
  conn = self.transfercmd(cmd)
  counter = 0
  while 1:
    print counter,"Bytes read yet."
    buf = fp.read(blocksize)
    if not buf: break
    conn.send(buf)
    counter = counter + blocksize
  conn.close()
  return self.voidresp()
