OK, so anything longer than 10-15 seconds needs to use some
asynchronous AJAXy techniques or something (probably a good idea from
a user feedback point of view anyway).

I've tried that a bunch of different times with limited success.  For
this guy's app, it just gives a blank frame for the app and "logs not
available" in the console app.

Cool.  I'll look for it.  What about some kind of built-in support for
worker threads, task queues, or some other built-in mechanism to
offload time consuming operations to the background?  Anything like
that in the pipe?
