Futures/Promises update from W3C

After Virginie started an  inquiry about Futures based on the last 
telco, here's the latest state of play as reported by WebApps W3C 
contact Yves Lafon and Robin Berjon is that we should use Futures 
(likely called "Promises") in the Web Crypto API, and send any input 
about design to . public-script-coord@w3.org (or directly to Anne and 
Alex). Obviously there is still work to be done.

Futures will be happening somewhere, either in HTML WG or Web Apps, by 
the time Web Crypto hit Last Call in Oct. and we should be able to then 
be able to normatively reference it. The TAG will also likely provide 
guidance.

    cheers,
       harry
