-/// A completion queue implements a concurrent producer-consumer queue, with two
-/// main methods, \a Next and \a AsyncNext.
+/// A completion queue implements a concurrent producer-consumer queue, with
+/// two main API-exposed methods: \a Next and \a AsyncNext. These
+/// methods are the essential component of the gRPC C++ asynchronous API.
+/// There is also a \a Shutdown method to indicate that a given completion queue
+/// will no longer have regular events. This must be called before the
+/// completion queue is destroyed.
+/// All completion queue APIs are thread-safe and may be used concurrently with
+/// any other completion queue API invocation; it is acceptable to have
+/// multiple threads calling \a Next or \a AsyncNext on the same or different
+/// completion queues, or to call these methods concurrently with a \a Shutdown
+/// elsewhere.
+/// \remark{All other API calls on completion queue should be completed before
+/// a completion queue destructor is called.}
