    DelayedTask is a generic utility for reusing, delaying and cancelling tasks. It's useful for creating tasks that will be reused throughout an application, but may be fired repeatedly, or cancelled and resumed at a later time.
    This can be useful for anything from a validation routing on a form field, to a menu item that will hide only after the user has stopped moving their mouse for a period of time.

        gallery: 'gallery-2010.08.18-17-12',
        modules: {
            'gallery-aui-skin-base': {

                type: 'css'
            },
            'gallery-aui-skin-classic': {
                fullpath: 'http://yui.yahooapis.com/gallery-2010.08.18-17-12/build/gallery-aui-skin-classic/css/gallery-aui-skin-classic-min.css',
                type: 'css',
                requires: ['gallery-aui-skin-base']
            }
        }
    }).use('gallery-aui-delayed-task', function(Y) {
       		var startTime = (+ new Date);
     
    		var genericTask = new Y.DelayedTask(function(){
    			console.log((+ new Date) - startTime); // how much time has delayed?
    		});
     
    		genericTask.delay(1000); // will add the focus class in 1 second.
    		genericTask.cancel(); // cancel the task before the second is up
     
    		// Assuming we've loaded node and event
    		Y.one('#divNode').on('mouseover', function(event) {
    			genericTask.delay(500);
    		});
     
    		// The genericTask will not fire until the user stops moving their mouse over the div for half a second.
     
    });
