You should take a look at https://github.com/Sage/streamlinejs
Same basic idea but it goes beyond simple sequencing of async calls; it handles async calls in every JS construct. Also, async/await is being considered for ES7 and there are already some polyfills that implement it with generators. See http://babeljs.io/docs/usage/transformers/other/async-to-generator/ for example.
