No matter what thread you begin the request on, the network call happens on the UI thread (uses the browsers networking stack and what not, so it makes sense). The wait APM stuff blocks the UI thread. So either you can block UI thread indefinitely or you
have to let the exit method exit and that causes the browser to exit anyway.
