This sounds like a tacit admittance that you're willing to deal with it because you don't think you have other options, but you do. There is at least one CPS compiler for Node (TameJS), and there are other languages that allow for the same result, but more straightforward implementations of concurrent code (Erlang, Ocaml/LWT, Haskell). I'm not saying you should use though, but we can do better and we should, even if it's just compiling back to JS in the end.
