The execution of a node's init method and sending of the oninit event is 
under the control of its initstage attribute, as follows:
immediate
     The init method is called immediately as the last stage of 
instantiation.
early
     The init method is called immediately after the view and its 
children have been instantiated.
normal
     The init method is called when the parent is initialized.
late
     The init method is called during idle time. To check whether init 
has been called, check the isinited property. Force calling init using 
the completeInstantiation method.
defer
     The init method will not be called unless explicitly requested by 
the completeInstantiation method.

I have used initstage early, normal, late and defer, but I have never 
had reason (that I can remember) of using initstage="immediate"
Is there something that leads you to ask?  or were you just curious?
