Hi All-

I recently ran into a situation similar to the one shown in this
screencast:  http://www.phppatterns.com/stuff/latency.html

The short version: Rapidly dispatched Asynchronous Javascript requests
don't always return to the client in the same order they were sent,
introducing odd behavior.

In my experience, 99.9% of the time, this is not an issue.  However,
that 0.1% is killing me.

I wanted to start some discussion about whether this might be
addressed within jQuery, how to address it, should it be a plugin,
etc.  I'd be happy to write one.
