True, but that is exactly why the team writing the documentation
should have kept the following related question in the forefront as
they wrote it: given that such is the case, how -are- users supposed
to figure out the differences in different components? Trial and
error? Belated, confusing responses from Google Groups, forums and
email lists? Or by suitable cross-references from the Javadoc node on
AsyncTask?

You can guess which one of these options is my preference;)
