+ * @deprecated KMail should be ported to Interface::HtmlWriter. This
+ * interface exposes internal working models. The queueing
+ * vs. writing() issues exposed here should be hidden by using two
+ * different implementations of KHTMLPartHtmlWriter: one for
+ * queueing, and one for writing. This should be fixed before the
+ * release, so we an keep the plugin interface stable.
+ *
+ * Operate this interface in one and only one of the following two
+ * modes:
+ *
+ * @section Sync Mode
+ *
+ * In sync mode, use #begin() to initiate a session, then
+ * #write() some chunks of HTML code and finally #end() the session.
+ *
+ * @section Async Mode
+ *
+ * In async mode, use #begin() to initialize a session, then
+ * #queue() some chunks of HTML code and finally end the
+ * session by calling #flush().
+ *
+ * Queued HTML code is fed to the html sink using a timer. For this
+ * to work, control must return to the event loop so timer events
+ * are delivered.
+ *
+ * @section Combined mode
+ *
+ * You may combine the two modes in the following way only. Any
+ * number of #write() calls can precede #queue() calls,
+ * but once a chunk has been queued, you @em must @em not
+ * #write() more data, only #queue() it.
+ *
+ * Naturally, whenever you queued data in a given session, that
+ * session must be ended by calling #flush(), not #end().
