So the behavior you are proposing in the above example is
when an onisReady event is sent from B:
if A.isinited == true, run the handler
if A.inited is false then that queues up the call to wait until the
"inited" attribute on A
is set to true, and then run? (using a new Delegate registered in
A.oninited?)
