* aOptions can have a variety of fields:
* headers, an array of headers
* postData, this can be:
* a string: send it as is
* an array of parameters: encode as form values
* null/undefined: no POST data.
* method, GET, POST or PUT (this is set automatically if postData exists).
* onLoad, a function handle to call when the load is complete, it takes two
* parameters: the responseText and the XHR object.
* onError, a function handle to call when an error occcurs, it takes three
* parameters: the error, the responseText and the XHR object.
* logger, an object that implements the debug and log methods (e.g. log.jsm).
*
* Headers or post data are given as an array of arrays, for each each inner
* array the first value is the key and the second is the value, e.g.
* [["key1", "value1"], ["key2", "value2"]].
