Plugins have no socket.io hook

Currently, plugins can add routes, static content, template blocks etc. However, they don't have any way to hook into the socket.io subsystem.

Access to the main socket.io object would make it easy for plugins to do server-push.

I think this is pretty well handled by the plugin_data & build-status features I added to the plugin api this weekend.
See strider-node for an example.

Agreed - build-status feature is awesome.
