What I think would be even better is to see this implemented in the
impls
(Weld & OWB) and see how users use it, in a release that's not plastered
with Alpha or Experimental all over it. While I think we were all wary
about it, we need real end user input from the impl standpoint to figure
out what makes sense to standardize on.
Or just do the opposite and *standardize* it. We can use Rx* feedbacks but
it doesnt' match event case at all which is a real small subset of the
reactive programming so I guess easiness should be what drives us there and
integration at least with the JVM so CFuture version sounds more natural
than CStage one. Difference is very small at method level but at utility
level it is.
Side note: a Weld or OWB release without experimental/alpha sounds worse if
the spec changes later. A compromise can be an extension doing it already
you can drop in any of these containers.
