Yeah, I think this is pretty simple: the runtime/stdlib should provide the 
primitives to compile top-level async code, get coroutines, etc., and then a 
REPL like ipython can take care of handing that off to asyncio or whatever 
library they want.

Maybe in the long run the builtin REPL should get async support "out of the 
box", but that's much less clear, and anyway we should split that off into a 
separate issue if we want to discuss it.

async-input isn't even useful for ipython, is it? you use prompt-toolkit :-)
