I would like a way to detect when there is no outstanding I/O.  An event 
would suffice.  A synchronous check would also be nice, but not as 
important.

The only way I have figured out how to do this is to spawn a child process 
which calls node, and then listen for the exit event, but this is expensive.

Domain and Domain.members are close to a solution, but it only shows the 
status the explicitly added event emitters, and there is no event fired 
when a domain member finishes, only if it errors.

I have seen packages (vows) that override 
events.EventEmitter.prototype.emit.  That would work, but the problem is 
that when more than one module does this they interfere with each other.  I 
think it's a bad choice, and it's already made certain modules incompatible 
with each other.

Any ideas?
