Async steps

[oellul]

Just a thought.. what if Cucumber supported the option to run certain steps asynchronously? Take the following scenario:

Given a running game
And 3 players have joined
When player 1 plays 1 round
And player 2 plays 2 rounds
And player 3 plays 3 rounds
Then the leaderboard should look like: ...

In a scenario like this each player does not necessarily need to wait for the others to play their rounds. The ability to make certain steps async could significantly improve test execution time, especially in larger test suites.
