What is the Dojo equivalent to jQuery .live()?

What is the Dojo equivalent to jQuery .live()?
http://api.jquery.com/live/

The only solution I found was to dojo.disconnect the event handlers and re-connect them once a dynamic piece of markup was added to the page.

usage and demo

dojo.query("body").delegate(selector, eventName, fn);

code - rewrites the original mixin-like delegate function of dojo

dojo.provide("dojox.NodeList.delegate");
dojo.require("dojo.NodeList-traverse");
dojo.extend(dojo.NodeList, {
    delegate: function ( selector,eventName, fn) {
        return this.connect(eventName, function (evt) {
            var closest = dojo.query(evt.target).closest(selector, this);
            if (closest.length) {
                fn.call(closest[0], evt);
            }
        }); //dojo.NodeList
    }
});

see ticket#11459

You can use this more generally like jQuery delegate, not just as live, because live is basically a delegate on the document level.
