Most runtimes (not necessarily engines) in my experience provide either a synchronous `sleep` or the above `setTimeout`/etc. globals. In addition, many popular testing frameworks (e.g. Mocha, Jasmine) require them for important functionality. So here's my thought: it might be a good idea to standardize these methods in the language proper instead of just within the browser.
