Yes, they should be supported.

You'd need a record of the lowest common parent node affected by the
batched events. The simplest way to batch events is to count the number
of mutation events and send DOMSubtreeModified after a given number have
been processed. More complex would be to add a timeout, to ensure the
SubtreeModified event gets flushed if insufficient modifications have
occurred to cause it to be emitted normally.
