Description
This is super neat! Perhaps a niche idea but, I saw in #15 that you were looking at generators/iterators, and the other proposal about a defer keyword, and it made think of how much nicer it would be in R if `async` was a keyword. I guess this also presupposes that async will be a thing?
```r
x <- await(foo())
```
```r
x <- await foo()
# or
x <- await {
foo()
}
```
