Well, under the current proposal, you can say:
  System.load(url, function () {}, function () {});

This will basically just load the given url and run it, asynchronously.
(The code is treated as a module, but IIUC the only difference that makes
is that global variables and functions it defines won't pollute the global
environment by default -- which seems like a good thing.)
