Well, DOM2 does define "Mutation Events"[1], which seem to be what

You could trigger custom events inside append(), prepend(), etc., but I 
dunno how well that will run.

They don't seem well supported according to a cursory investigation. 
The latter approach is the one Brandon took, and is probably the best 
that can be done with current browsers, although maybe it could back all 
the way into the underlying DOM functions.
