async subprocess with live output (on Windows requires ProactorEventLoop which ipykernel doesn't use)

I'd like to be able to run subprocesses in the notebook and trace their output using asyncio. I thought that since the ipykernel is now using asyncio that it should just be a fairly simple await call.

https://blog.jupyter.org/ipython-7-0-async-repl-a35ce050f7f7

However, when I try to run the following example:

from https://fredrikaverpil.github.io/2017/06/20/async-and-await-with-subprocesses/
```python
async def run_command(*args):
"""Run command in subprocess

Example from:
http://asyncio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subprocess.html
"""
# Create subprocess
process = await asyncio.create_subprocess_exec(
*args,
# stdout must a pipe to be accessible as process.stdout
stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE)

# Status
print('Started:', args, '(pid = ' + str(process.pid) + ')')

# Wait for the subprocess to finish
stdout, stderr = await process.communicate()

# Progress
if process.returncode == 0:
print('Done:', args, '(pid = ' + str(process.pid) + ')')
else:
print('Failed:', args, '(pid = ' + str(process.pid) + ')')

# Result
result = stdout.decode().strip()

# Return stdout
return result
```

I get the following:

```

My initial research shows that on Windows I have to use the Proactor event loop to do subprocesses? So does this mean that ipykernel simple doesn't use the event loop that I would need to do this? Or am I missing something?
