You are probably confusing ES spec with DOM spec, if not, at least I cannot find anything in ES spec even remotely related to how anything built on top would ha

  The concept of an event loop and event loop 'turns' is backed into ES promises the last time I read the draft spec and kept up with the spec discussions. It's not something you can polyfill in older versions of JS, it's a platform feature designed around how browsers work.

    Hmm, do you recall where the ES promises spec lives? I can't find it in the ES6 draft ( http://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html http://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html ), but it's in the DOM spec ( http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#promises http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#promises ). ES6 does end up having iterators, which does look useful for promises, though... see task.js.
