Hmm this is an interesting idea, so many different ways to access that
property, and with no native property change model it seems
impossible.  My first thought was using a timer but that is going to
gum up resources.  If in your app you were savvy and used a setter
method you could implement an event that would get this done.  Using
prototype's setStyle, and ele being a valid dom reference you could do
something like this

ele.setStyle = ele.setStyle.wrap(function(prc, style){
        if(style.height && this.getHeight() != style.height.match(/^[0-9]+/
g).first()){
                prc(style);
                this.fire("derka:heightChange");
        }
        else
                prc(style);
});

Which would work fine for a single element, if you wanted to observe
multiple elements height change I'd suggest iterating over a
collection of objects that needed this functionality and wrap their
setStyle methods.

Here is a basic working demo of this in action, be sure to have
firebug working as the debug comes across in the console.
