<p>Abstract implementation of a model thread class
Thread in which the model runs, all requests to the model should be
posted to the the model thread.</p>
<p>This class ensures the gui thread doesn't block when the model needs
time to complete tasks by providing asynchronous communication between
the model thread and the gui thread</p>
