How to change npm modules installation directory?

Question

Node.js

Hello. How can I change the node_modules directory in my working directory? For example, so that all modules fall into the vendor folder.
I did this: npm install ... --prefix vendor, but for example grunt did not see my config later.

It's impossible, unfortunately. The FAQ says that the name of this folder is hardcoded in 100500 places (yes, the excuse is left).
jspm can go to a folder of your choice, for the client-side - that's it. But grunt with plugins and stuff will still go to node_modules.
