Sure. This process is in a bit of a heavy brainstorming at this point,
and we will probably extract the detection logic to a separate package
so that autopkgtest, sadt (from devscripts) and other runners that might
come into existance can share this behaviour.

I have committed support for nodejs in that new package, please check if
it suits your needs:

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/autodep8.git

Please feel free to commit there if you want to change something. To run
the test suite you can just `make test` or `./test.sh`
