Thanks guys. I emailed Dominic Tarr and he recommends against using
node streams v2 for this stuff as well.

Fedor - thats cute, but say if I call:

s.on('finish', function() { process.exit(); });
s.end();

... My process will exit while data is still in the buffer. The
annoying this is that I can provide that guarantee right now from my
code - I get message acknowledgements, so I can tell you exactly when
all messages have been received by the client. But I can't control
when finish is emitted using streams 2.0 - it gets sent automatically
after the _write() callback is called on the last message. If the
stream 'writes' to an internal memory buffer, those guarantees are all
lost.

Also imagine this code:

middleware = function(req, res) {
  // Process messages in the request, then send the responses in the response
  s.push(req.body.message);

  // When there's data available, send it to the client
  s.on('avail', function() {
    process.nextTick(function() {
      res.end(s.buffer);
    });
  });
}

then:

s.on('data', function(msg) {
  s.write('one');
  s.write('two');
});

^--- the request will only be sent 'one' but not 'two' because of how
_write works.
