    Created: 06/2/10
    Last CDN Push: 02/9/11
    Build Tag: gallery-2011.02.09-21-32
    Project: YUI 3
    License: YUI BSD
    YUI Version: 3.1.1
    Free for use.

    A module wrapper to the default IO based on Base that adds many new features, such as:
    - Ability to subscribe to on/after events (and allowing for the prevention of default handlers for "start", "success", "failure", "complete", and "end")
    - Preventing the caching of the URI
    - Automatically parsing response based on dataType (HTML, JSON, XML)
    - Pre-configuring a connection and starting it at a later time (with optional, custom overrides)
    - Specifying a default transaction method (GET or POST) for all connections
    - Specifying a custom URI formatter to globally format the URI before a connection is started (this is useful if custom parameters must be added to the URL such as the session ID)
