		to resource loading around this common functionality.
	@par
		The general approach here is that on requesting a background resource
		process, your request is placed on a queue ready for the background
		thread to be picked up, and you will get a 'ticket' back, identifying
		the request. Your call will then return and your thread can
		proceed, knowing that at some point in the background the operation will 
		be performed. In it's own thread, the resource operation will be 
		performed, and once finished the ticket will be marked as complete. 
		You can check the status of tickets by calling isProcessComplete() 
		from your queueing thread.
