I absolutely need callbacks that happen after the method returned. JavaScript uses callbacks for everything, because it is single-threaded. There is no preemption, and not even a yield: you always have to return completely back to the browser. You don’t call the browser, it calls you. There is no main(). Also, there is no longjmp.
