I’ve toyed with the idea of implementing rxjs, but I haven’t yet encountered a 
use case compelling enough for me to want to learn and implement it…

Royale supports Promises.

There’s been no discussion yet about adding async/await to AS3.

Personally, I’ve used Promises as well as async/await pretty extensively in JS 
code and I’m not a fan. I believe it to be an anti-pattern. Promises area a 
horrible syntax and await needs to be wrapped in a try/catch. To me that’s code 
smell.

The pattern I’ve been using *very* extensively recently is one I call 
AyncTasks. It unabashedly uses callbacks, but the lifecycle is very 
standardized, lends itself to strongly typed results and is really easy to use.
