// summary:
// Check if a parameter is ready, and if not,
// "do later". doLater will ping the parameter
// until it evaluates to something (truthy).
// It thens calls the caller with original
// arguments, using the supplied context or
// window.
// description:
// dojox.timing.doLater(conditional) is testing if the call
// should be done later. So it returns
// true if the param is false.
// arguments:
// conditional: anything
// Can be a property that eventually gets set, or
// an expression, method... anything that can be
// evaluated.
// context: Object
// The namespace where the call originated.
// Defaults to global and anonymous functions
// interval: Number
// Poll time to check conditional in Milliseconds
// example:
// | setTimeout(function(){
// | if(dojox.timing.doLater(app.ready)){return;}
// | console.log("Code is ready! anonymous.function SUCCESS")
// | },700);
//
if(conditional){ return false; } // Boolean
