A Node-style event loop leads to callback hell. It would be awesome to have something like Boost Asio.

Not anymore - with V4 generator based "coroutines" are available (enabled by default).

I was thinking async-await, which I thought hasn't been standardized yet. Do generators provide the same functionality?

Either way, I hope Rust skips the callbacks.
