Nice writeup. I believe the Rust team and community drew a lot of inspiration from the C# async-await, during their planning and design stages? Good to see a lot of other programming languages incorporating this feature into their various ecosystems. Once more, we'll done Rust.

From the various threads I've read they look at a wide range of "prior art", and it was the main argument against postfix ".await"- it would be foreign to everyone.

Should have mentioned this is just the MVP to unblock the ecosystem and async-await is far from "finished". Should probably sneak that into the opening somewhere.
