+1. I think this is the right default: async by default, and the wrong
thing to do (i.e. blocking) requires additional code and explicit opt-in.
If you end up with a super-long elements list (as shown by dfreedm@), then
that also serves as a great indicator that you're likely doing it wrong --
you have too many blocking elements and a performance liability on your
hands.
