     * QueueingLoader
     *
     * Simple wrapper around jQuery.ajax, which introduces two step loading
     * of remote data.
     *
     * Step 1: register URL and meta information using `register`
     * Step 2: load all registered elements using `load`
     *
     * To notify consumers about AJAX responses, the QueueingLoader uses
     * the jQuery custom event system. Whenever a request is complete,
     * success or error events will be triggered. When the queue is empty,
     * an 'empty' event will be triggered. Use the callback functions like
     * the following ones, to react on these events:
     *
     *     jQuery(myLoader).on("success", function (e, args) {
     *       console.log("'success' triggered for", this);
     *       console.log("identifier used in register:",  args.identifier);
     *       console.log("context provided in register:", args.context);
     *       console.log("data returned by the server:",  args.data);
     *     });
     *
     *     jQuery(myLoader).on("error", function (e, args) {
     *       console.log("'error' triggered for ", this);
     *       console.log("identifier used in register:",  args.identifier);
     *       console.log("context provided in register:", args.context);
     *       console.log("textStatus provided by jqXHR:", args.textStatus);
     *     });
     *
     *     jQuery(myLoader).on("empty", function (e) {
     *       console.log("'empty' triggered for ", this);
