"""Proxies a target object and runs its methods in the background.
All method calls to this object are forwarded to the target and executed
in a background thread. Method calls return immediately. Exceptions from
the target method are turned into warnings. At most one method from the
target object may be executed in the background; if a new call is
submitted while the previous one is still executing, a warning is printed
and the new call is dropped.
This feature is typically used to wrap slow and non-critical RPCs in
experiments.
