How to wait for the elements' animation queues for a given queue name to get empty?

Compact syntax with timing methods:

1
$('.some').join(queue,true).doSome().jQueryStuff();

Due to a bug in jQuery this feature doesn't work up to jQuery 1.8.0.

Compare this to the old way with more syntactic fluff:

1
2
3
$('.some').promise(queue).then(function(){
  $('.some').doSome().jQueryStuff();
});
