What would be your suspending function then? I would say putting runBlocking around non suspending code is a noop.
What are you trying to achieve?

This is for <http://kweb.io/>, you can see an example of how I’m using `future` in the source snippet on that page.

I suggest to use launch(CommonPool) if you don't need a result.For the exception I am not sure, what you would like to happen in case of exception.

~I think future will leak memory if you don't call await as the result is being kept until collected by await. Even if the result is Unit~
Well I guess, when the future get's collected, then the result will also go away. Nut sure though.

Uli, I would like exceptions to be logged by my library, but the problem is that the `future` declaration occurs in the user of my library’s code - so really I’m looking for a recommendation to my users that will allow them to synchronously wait on futures, but without losing exceptions that might be thrown in that code.
