+/**
+ * The Continuation interface is designed to help easily create multi-step
+ * operations that share data without having to pass it around or create
+ * custom Context classes for each step. To write a Continuation:
+ * 1) create a child class with a function for each stage.
+ * 2) Put all your shared data members into the class.
+ * 3) In the constructor, register each function stage with set_callback().
+ * 4) Whenever you need to provide a Context callback that activates the next
+ * stage, call get_callback(stage_number). If you need to proceed to another
+ * stage immediately, call immediate(stage, retcode) and return its result.
+ *
+ * To use a class:
+ * 1) Construct the child class on the heap.
+ * 2) Call begin().
+ * 3) The destructor will be called once one of your functions returns true to
+ * indicate it is done.
+ *
+ * Please note that while you can skip stages and get multiple Callback
+ * objects at once, you *cannot* have any stage report that the Continuation
+ * is completed while any other stage Callbacks are outstanding. It's best to
+ * be serial unless you want to maintain your own metadata about which stages
+ * are still pending.
+ *
+ * In fact, there are only two situations in which a stage should return
+ * true while others are running:
+ * 1) A Callback was issued and completed in the same thread,
+ * 2) you called immediate(stage) and it is returning true.
