/** Lightweight key for tracking which SendableRequestItem's are running. Does not need to include
* expensive stuff such as the data to insert. Used by e.g. KeysFetchingLocally to track what
* transient inserts are running. @see SendableRequestItem.getKey(). If that method just returns
* the request, the default equals() and hashCode() should be fine, however if you have a separate
* key class for checking quickly whether something is queued you will need real equals() and
* hashCode() methods. Should be globally unique, i.e. should not equal the keys for other
* requests, so don't just use e.g. an integer on its own. */
