[Bug 19414] Implement finishPropagation() method

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=19414

--- Comment #5 from Glenn Maynard <glenn@zewt.org> ---
It's not a hack or a workaround at all; it's a common paradigm in every
event-based system to queue tasks, and in the Web platform setTimeout is how
you do it.  If you want it to run as soon as possible when the current task
completes, you set the timeout to 0.  It's simple and clean, and it doesn't
care whether you're running from an event handler, a timer, a generic callback,
or anything else: it works everywhere consistently.

I'll point out that what you're saying is a moving target: you started by
saying that there's "guessing" and "presumption", and after explaining that
there's no guesswork and that setTimeout is guaranteed to work, you started
saying something else.

Beyond that, I'm not spending more time on this ticket; I'll leave it to
others.
