Having discovering 'trap' I scripted this:
declare -a queue[]
function q() {
[EMAIL PROTECTED]"cd `pwd` && $@"
}
function runq() {
if [ -n "$queue" ]; then
local command=$queue
queue=("[EMAIL PROTECTED]:1}")
bash -c "($command; kill -33 $$)" &
fi
}
trap 'runq' 33
which works almost as intended...

(where the second command line awaits the execution of the first etc.)
In a script you can grab the process id of the last background job
with $!. Then you can wait for that job id.
command &
wait $! && command2 &
wait $! && command3 &
Just an idea...
