It's not Future.await that is special per se, it's that it (Future.await) will have in it somewhere either in its body or in another function that it calls in turn, a use of `suspend` (using old Zig syntax). `suspend` is the keyword that best fits your description (you can think of it as being closely related to `yield` in other languages), and it's kind of a lower-level primitive compared to async/await. This also means that, according to our plans, Zig will have to propagate "stackless-ness" upwards in the call chain while analyzing the code (thus making Future.await not special per-se). |

Very interesting, will be following Zig development more closely. Thanks for sharing!
