-/**
- * Dispatcher is used to broadcast payloads to registered callbacks. This is
- * different from generic pub-sub systems in two ways:
- *
- *   1) Callbacks are not subscribed to particular events. Every payload is
- *      dispatched to every registered callback.
- *   2) Callbacks can be deferred in whole or part until other callbacks have
- *      been executed.
- *
- * For example, consider this hypothetical flight destination form, which
- * selects a default city when a country is selected:
- *
- *   var flightDispatcher = new Dispatcher();
- *
- *   // Keeps track of which country is selected
- *   var CountryStore = {country: null};
- *
- *   // Keeps track of which city is selected
- *   var CityStore = {city: null};
- *
- *   // Keeps track of the base flight price of the selected city
- *   var FlightPriceStore = {price: null}
- *
- * When a user changes the selected city, we dispatch the payload:
- *
- *   flightDispatcher.dispatch({
- *     actionType: 'city-update',
- *     selectedCity: 'paris'
- *   });
- *
- * This payload is digested by `CityStore`:
- *
- *   flightDispatcher.register(function(payload)) {
- *     if (payload.actionType === 'city-update') {
- *       CityStore.city = payload.selectedCity;
- *     }
- *   });
- *
- * When the user selects a country, we dispatch the payload:
- *
- *   flightDispatcher.dispatch({
- *     actionType: 'country-update',
- *     selectedCountry: 'australia'
- *   });
- *
- * This payload is digested by both stores:
- *
- *    CountryStore.dispatchToken = flightDispatcher.register(function(payload) {
- *     if (payload.actionType === 'country-update') {
- *       CountryStore.country = payload.selectedCountry;
- *     }
- *   });
- *
- * When the callback to update `CountryStore` is registered, we save a reference
- * to the returned token. Using this token with `waitFor()`, we can guarantee
- * that `CountryStore` is updated before the callback that updates `CityStore`
- * needs to query its data.
- *
- *   CityStore.dispatchToken = flightDispatcher.register(function(payload) {
- *     if (payload.actionType === 'country-update') {
- *       // `CountryStore.country` may not be updated.
- *       flightDispatcher.waitFor([CountryStore.dispatchToken]);
- *       // `CountryStore.country` is now guaranteed to be updated.
- *
- *       // Select the default city for the new country
- *       CityStore.city = getDefaultCityForCountry(CountryStore.country);
- *     }
- *   });
- *
- * The usage of `waitFor()` can be chained, for example:
- *
- *   FlightPriceStore.dispatchToken =
- *     flightDispatcher.register(function(payload)) {
- *       switch (payload.actionType) {
- *         case 'country-update':
- *           flightDispatcher.waitFor([CityStore.dispatchToken]);
- *           FlightPriceStore.price =
- *             getFlightPriceStore(CountryStore.country, CityStore.city);
- *           break;
- *
- *         case 'city-update':
- *           FlightPriceStore.price =
- *             FlightPriceStore(CountryStore.country, CityStore.city);
- *           break;
- *     }
- *   });
- *
- * The `country-update` payload will be guaranteed to invoke the stores'
- * registered callbacks in order: `CountryStore`, `CityStore`, then
- * `FlightPriceStore`.
