+ * An asynchronous SQL statement.  This differs from mozIStorageStatement by
+ * only being usable for asynchronous execution.  (mozIStorageStatement can
+ * be used for both synchronous and asynchronous purposes.)  This specialization
+ * for asynchronous operation allows us to avoid needing to acquire
+ * synchronization primitives also used by the asynchronous execution thread.
+ * In contrast, mozIStorageStatement may need to acquire the primitives and
+ * consequently can cause the main thread to lock for extended intervals while
+ * the asynchronous thread performs some long-running operation.

+   * This does not work for BLOBs.  You must use an explicit binding API for
