Meteor event maps?

I like Meteor's "event map" approach (http://docs.meteor.com/#eventmaps) for organizing UI event handlers, and was wondering if this or similar is available as a third-party plugin for use outside of Meteor?

Example:

Template.login.events = {
  // Fires when any element is clicked
  'click': function (event) { ... },

  // Fires when any element with the 'accept' class is clicked
  'click .accept': function (event) { ... },

  // Fires when 'accept' is clicked, or a key is pressed
  'keydown, click .accept': function (event) { ... }
}

Have a look at my answer on this question: Pass named function to an events map

It is exactly what you have asked.

Looks like jQuery supports very similar syntax:

http://api.jquery.com/on/

$('.link').on({
  click: function() {
    t.find('div').show();
  },
  mouseout: function() {
    t.find('div').hide();
  }
});

Seems good enough :-)
