I'm afraid there is no equivalent to what we have in the ftrack-python-api. How are you using the ftrack-javascript-api, are you building a custom widget?

Not exactly.

I'm calling the API from the main HTML document of an Adobe CEP panel (https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Getting-Started-guides) in almost exactly the way it's called in this example in the FTrack documentation: http://ftrack-javascript-api.rtd.ftrack.com/en/stable/tutorial.html. With the goal of getting data from a users Tasks and displaying it in a <div>.

It's extremely simple, here's a rough breakdown of the html: 

<!doctype html>
<html>
	<head>
		<meta charset="utf-8">
			<!-- Ftrack API -->
			<script src="./lib/ftrack.min.js"></script>
	</head>	
	<body>
			<div>
				<button id="loadFTrackStuff" onclick="getTaskList()">Load Tasks</button>
			</div>
			<div id="taskList"></div>
	</body>
	<script>
		function getTaskList() {

			document.getElementById("taskList").innerHTML = '';

			var session = new ftrack.Session(
				'https://my-company.ftrackapp.com',
				'john.doe@example.com',
				'7545344e-a653-11e1-a82c-f22c11dd25eq'
			);

			session.initializing.then(function () {
				var request = session.query('select name, type.name, custom_attributes, incoming_links, outgoing_links, priority.name from Task where status.name is "Ready To Start" and assignments any (resource.username = "john.doe@example.com")');
				request.then(function (response) {
					var taskData = response.data;
					var tdl = taskData.length;
					for (var i = 0; i < tdl; i++) {
						document.getElementById("taskList").innerHTML += "<div>" + taskData[i].name + ",  <b>Type:</b>" + taskData[i].type.name + ",  <b>Priority:</b>" + taskData[i].priority.name + '</div><div>(' + (taskData[i].incoming_links.length+taskData[i].outgoing_links.length) +  "Links) " + (taskData[i].custom_attributes[0].key + ":" + taskData[i].custom_attributes[0].value) + " " + (taskData[i].custom_attributes[3].key + ":" + taskData[i].custom_attributes[3].value) + "</div>";
					}
				});
			});

		}
	</script>
</html>

Everything works fine, I was just curious if this sort of use is problematic if the session(s) are never closed explicitly.
