Sorry for raising a ticket on this, as it's a question rather than a bug - if there's a mailing list that would be better for these types of questions please let me know.

What I'm wondering is whether it's possible to do synchronous retrieval of records using AS3-Spod. The interface for my class that I'm trying to implement using AS3-Spod has methods like this:

````function getAllUsers():Vector.;````

Now I can see that SpodTable has a selectAll() method. But I can't see how I can access the data without listening to signals - and if I have to listen to signals, then I can't do everything in the body getAllUsers method, and return the retrieved the data, can I? Unless I'm misunderstanding something about how it works.

This being the case, why would one ever call SpodManager's open() method without the second argument (async) being true?
