Promises are currently being specified at [1] and according to [2] they
will be introduced in ES6.
I would like to implement them behind a flag.
The implementation will replace the Promises implementation in Blink in the
future.

 Other implementations

Promises are also defined in whatwg[3] and some web browsers are
implementing it.
 - WebKit https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120954
 - Blink https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=243345
 - Firefox https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=911216

 Technical considerations

Promises need an asynchronous task execution mechanism.
Currently I plan to provide a "postTask" function from Blink to V8.
