Compose: Make --parallel the default for pull

[edsrzf]

4428 added the --parallel flag to the pull command. What needs to be done to get that to the point where it's the default? Off the top of my head:

• [ ] Some experience with --parallel to gather feedback.
• [ ] Better, more detailed output. I have some ideas here.

Do we need anything else? Is there any reason that parallel pulling should never become the default?

Has there been any progress on this? I have been using --parallel for awhile, and it has been working well.

The only thing I think it is missing is some sort of progress indicator.

I haven't made any steps towards this yet, no, aside from thinking about it. I agree some sort of progress feedback is necessary. At the very least I want to know which images are currently being pulled as the command is working.

+100. I've been wanting parallel downloads for a while and never knew it was an option (because who checks flags for commands that already work :P)

Any news on this? A .dockerglobalsettings or something like that we can set it would also work...
