Moving Code to Other Threads

Registered by Nathan Osman

Some of the code in StackApplet ties up the GUI and some of the new HTTP stuff will make this even worse. Therefore a need exists to move a lot of the code to a new thread.

Whiteboard

In the 1.4 series, everything is in one thread... which is inefficient and bad practice.

Current status:

 - Thread 1 is responsible for initialization and the GUI
 - Thread 2 is responsible for network requests to and responses received from the SE API
 - Thread 3 is responsible for the HTTP server used by the preferences pages

Each of these threads is separated and properly synchronized.
