[FlexJS] @this references in JSDoc

Alex, Peter,

I see a lot of JSDoc annotations in the FlexJS JS framework for @this
references that point to classes other than the current class. They
also fall outside the inheritance chain.

An example is in LazyCollection.js, on the 'get_inputParser' method.
@this points to 'org.apache.flex.core.HTTPService'.

What is the idea behind these references?

Consider it uncreated.

FYI, I'm working on a branch where I'm replacing the current event
handling with 'goog' based event handling, to see if the latter adds
overhead we don't want, or if the convenience of having a well tested
implementation is worth it. Once the branch works against the current
FlexJSTest_again example, I'll publish it for your review. We can
merge what we like against develop after that.

I thought you were the one who created it.  I've been wondering what your
larger plan was.

I'm feeling free ;-)

The thought behind FlexObject is just to provide a common base class,
or is it part of a larger plan?
