the asynch method to get around 'critical results' is to use the callbacks.
you just continue the logic inside there, plus you have the ajaxstart
& ajaxstop to selectively 'prevent' any other features while waiting
for the 'critical' result.
Of course I have no problem with implementing the sync XHR, I just
prefer async (since I have jquery to do the dirty work)
