Hi,

A final point while I am thinking about it:

This difference shows up here, for example:

  Q.async(function*(){
    return [for (x of y) yield x]
  })()

You can yield in the body of an ES6 array comprehension, but not in the
body of a generator comprehension.  This isn't something you can do with
an internal iterator design.
