Found an event that's close to what we want and added code showing how to exploit it. Note that it is less impactful, on average, than the simple timer (which has no human-noticeable impact on performance), and much less peak impact than rojo's raw MutationObserver approach (which needs tuning and targeting). But this kind of code is also more complicated and brittle.

I use MutationObserver to watch the document root and reapply event handlers in my stuff. It's flawless as far as I can tell. MutationObserver is the correct answer I think.

You could try MutationObservers, but I think you'll find that they get pretty fiddly/brittle for this kind of thing.
