* Updated prompt request code to support the new silent execution mechanism....
* Updated prompt request code to support the new silent execution mechanism. * Improved frontend tracking of request ids. This should ensure that it is safe to use the frontend's kernel manager without confusing it.

frontendbase provides an interface and base class for GUI frontends for
