 * Runnable object that returns a result object.

 * This is like Future<V> from the concurrent package,

 * 
 * RunnableWithResult<X> runnable = new RunnableWithResult<X>() {
 *   public X call() {
 *     ... do work, return an X object ...
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 * Thread thread = new Thread(runnable);
 * thread.start();
 * X result = runnable.getResult(0);
 * 
 * or, to run it on the UI thread...
 * 
 * GUIUtils.execAndWait(runnable);
 * X result = runnable.getResult(0);
 * 
 * Note: if you're invoking this from the UI thread,
 * it's important to use execAndWait(), so that the runnable
 * gets a turn on the event loop, otherwise you'll hang the UI!
