Description
I am using docker-py to pull and run images on Raspberry Pi devices, and with slow internet connections making the whole process take some time. The pull and run is done via a web interface. I would like to be able to return the progress to the web interface. It would be helpful if there was a way to stream the progress.

Research direction
Start by reading the related build-progress discussion in issue 376 and the Docker Engine API behavior for pull and run operations. Define how progress can be streamed through docker-py to a web interface, and verify that both pulling and running expose usable progress without blocking the caller.
