mostly for testing etc, annoying to add a ton of callbacks for initialization

Not only for testing imo. It makes the code using nsq.js simpler as well.

kinda hacky :( it's a fundamental flaw in node as a platform, feels weird doing per-library fixes

[juliangruber]

people can just use this: https://github.com/juliangruber/deferred-method. would you consider adding it to core though?

mixed feelings, it's definitely annoying to not have, but definitely a fundamental problem that everything in node has issues with, so in that sense a separate module makes sense
