- Simplify table source table setup and make thread safe. This should address http://log.sequelpro.com/view/43 , http://log.sequelpro.com/view/46

 - Improve keepalive timer interaction - this should address http://log.sequelpro.com/view/74 and http://log.sequelpro.com/view/71
 - Further thread safety improvements to Custom Query, Table Document, and the history controller
