/// loop. The thread is terminated when the CefThread object is destroyed or
/// Stop() is called. All pending tasks queued on the thread's message loop will
/// run to completion before the thread is terminated. CreateThread() can be
/// called on any valid CEF thread in either the browser or render process. This
/// class should only be used for tasks that require a dedicated thread. In most
