> The idea is that Tasks are generally run on a background thread, but we don't usually know what that thread was.  There should be a field inside the Task class that keeps a weak reference to the thread ("weak" so it doesn't hold up garbage collection).  That way any errors caught during the task execution can actually report the thread that was used.
