Thanks for the explanation.

Dnode seems to be nice for RPC but I think it does not solve all problems 
stated above by default (or I just did not discover it but I didn't found a 
good documentation).

Especially on client side I discovered managing listeners can be quite a 
pain for example with lots of listeners while logged in or viewing a 
special page. Restricting the client to only listen on particular messages 
(or emit) proved to be very handy for me having a clear socket api.
