 * Denotes that the annotated method should only be called on a worker thread.
 * If the annotated element is a class, then all methods in the class should be
 * called on a worker thread.
 * 
 * Example:
 *
 * 
 * 
 *  @WorkerThread
 *  protected abstract FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint);
 * 
 * 
 *
 * @memberDoc This method may take several seconds to complete, so it should
 *            only be called from a worker thread.
