+ * then the ultimate state will be based on the last request. The intermediate identifies can be discarded.

+ * A third request would then replace the second request if the second request had not yet become active, and it was

+ *
+ * Once a task is active the queue will complete it. It doesn't cancel tasks that it has started, but it can shed tasks
+ * that have not started.
+ *
+ * TTaskResult Is the return type of the task to be executed. Tasks accept no parameters. So if you need parameters
+ * you should use a lambda to capture them.
+ *
