I thought about this and I don't think CFers really need or want the
ability to do full-blown multi-threading. However, I do think many
CFers would benefit from a tag that delays the processing of a block of
CFML until after the request is complete. For example the following...
<!--- do a bunch of stuff --->
<cfprocesslater>
<!--- do some stuff after the request is served --->
</cfprocesslater>
<!--- do more stuff --->
Would anyone be interested in a tag like the above?
