I do show an activity indicator in the app - which gives the user an
indication that it's busy, but in my use-case it's not appropriate to allow
them to or need them to cancel the call as it can potentially have
unexpected results for the call that is already submitted to the back-end
web-service.

Other than for user-friendliness - is there any technical reason as to
whether having the call to the web-service on another thread will make it
perform any different?
