 ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 // BrowserThread
 //
 // Utility functions for threads that are known by a browser-wide
 // name.  For example, there is one IO thread for the entire browser
 // process, and various pieces of code find it useful to retrieve a
 // pointer to the IO thread's message loop.
 //
 // Invoke a task by thread ID:
 //
 //   BrowserThread::PostTask(BrowserThread::IO, FROM_HERE, task);
 //
 // The return value is false if the task couldn't be posted because the target
 // thread doesn't exist.  If this could lead to data loss, you need to check the
 // result and restructure the code to ensure it doesn't occur.
 //
 // This class automatically handles the lifetime of different threads.
 // It's always safe to call PostTask on any thread.  If it's not yet created,
 // the task is deleted.  There are no race conditions.  If the thread that the
 // task is posted to is guaranteed to outlive the current thread, then no locks
 // are used.  You should never need to cache pointers to MessageLoops, since
 // they're not thread safe.
