This is beautiful work! I see small shades of inspiration from the .Net TPL[1] and the more recent async-await paradigm[2] in C#. But, this is way more concise and beautiful implementation :-)

Thanks! I was wondering if someone would make that comparison. I saw async-await a little after I started working on this and felt it was good confirmation that this was actually a reasonable idea.
