I haven't seen any word on this for the last 3 years, and generators have
been approved for ES.next:
http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:generators

`yield` would be an extremely useful addition to javascript, especially for
node users. I know that node-fibers exists, but something native goes a lot
farther and is also available in the browser.

Is `yield` on the roadmap at all for v8? It would be awesome if so. I think
it's about time.

It's certainly on the radar, and will probably be one of the next
major features we turn our attention to. But there are no concrete
plans yet.
