Wondering what everyone is doing for hookable events these days. I am 
looking to use something that lets me do similar to emitHook(ee, event, 
arg1, after(err)), I am wondering what other people are doing, or if they 
are using something instead of event emitters to share state for hookable 
events. I could use my own implementation but would rather follow an 
established pattern if there is any.

```
function emitHook(ee, event, /*...,*/ callback) {
  var args = [].slice.call(arguments, 1, -1);
  var defers = 0;
  function defer(hook) {
    defers++;
    hook(finish);
  }
  function finish(err) {
    if (err) {
      defers = 0;
    }
    defers--;
    if (defers === 0) {
      callback(err);
    }
  }
  if (defers === 0) {
    callback();
  }
  return ee.emit.apply(ee, args.concat(defer));
}
```
