I3IpcClient "connect" emit order is corrected.

[ndvtr]

I3IpcClient "connect" event emit is placed after "self._stream" assign.

[sidorares]

why this was a problem? Does any code outside relies on ._stream being set?

[ndvtr]

yes, you are right, ._stream from the outside is not very good, but I needed for example a ._stream.destroy()

[sidorares]

can you elaborate why? Maybe we need to add public api for that?

[ndvtr]

Close/destroy socket connection after a timeout: I'm waiting a window event but not longer than 30 seconds or another logic, for example.
Yes, .destroy() would be nice:
