- One of the top trending features requests on Edge userVoice and one of the top JS features by votes too
- async/await is a very popular feature in other languages such as C#, and somewhat related to popular features such as Promises
- An ES7 feature is already included here (object.observe)
- Implementation(s) have started

As a general note, I'd prefer to remove ES versions, especially future ones. Version numbers are not very meaningful, and it's not guaranteed that something will land in a specific version.

Just want to add that async function is already implemented in Microsoft Edge Windows Insider Preview Build 10532+. So this is a good time to add that entry in caniuse.

For the time being see http://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es2016plus/#test-async_functions as always, but I'd like to see this on caniuse, too.
