Defer expression

[kai zhu]

setTimeout is still the best solution in my mind.  none of the promise
or async code examples presented are as immediately obvious as
setTimeout that the code is to self-run at a later time (and you don't
need the 1ms argument).

```js
// self-comment that this code will self-run
// after the main script in a reasonably immediate fashion
setTimeout(function () {
    // deferred code
})
```
