I'm slightly confused about what you want here.
If you just want the ability to download code, and then eval it using
the loader mechanism, that's already there -- just use XHR to get the
code, and then call `System.eval(...)`.
If you want the ability to fetch the source the way that the loader
would do it, and then not actually *load* the code, we could
potentially add that, but it's tricky for recursive cases -- would you
want all the relevant code, or just the specified module?
Or do you want something else than this?
Finally, I don't see why your example doesn't work exactly as:
document.onload(function() { System.load("ewa.js", ...); })
