Just recently, we converted our website to use the new library loading 
procedures outlined in the documentation (from google.load('visualization') 
to google.charts.load)

As soon as the page loads, we have javascript firing that uses the google 
charts library. We have the call to load the library within the <head> tag.

Previously, we never had issues with synchronization. If we did 
google.load('visualization', '1.0', 'packages': { ['corechart'] }); by the 
time we go to our javascript, it would execute properly with no exceptions. 
Now that we're using the current library loading procedure, we're getting 
errors at runtime which suggest the visualization library is still loading 
by the time our javascript runs.

Is the library loading method asynchronous? I couldn't find anything 
explicitly in the documentation that said so, though it seems like it is, 
and that makes sense. I realize there is a feature to use a callback, which 
is nice as you're waiting for the library to load, but I was curious if 
there was any way to override that call to make it synchronous?

Additionally, if any users have come across a clever way to ensure that 
none of your charts-dependent javascript runs until that library is loaded, 
that would be helpful. I'm not quite sure what our best approach is going 
to be, but I'm trying to blend our already-working code into this new 
library feature.
