Node has nothing to do with clients. It was born without hard links to client.
And it was a good decision. It's not only "client" as a browser. It's about "client (browser/native/internet of things)" and "other servers (maybe other nodes)". Node has a great focused mission: to be the bricks of the first SkyNet ;-) The other side (call it "client"?) is under vibrant development. Linking Node to "the other side" is not the way to follow. Vive le difference!
