[Mozile] notification on change

[James A. Overton]

This would be a great feature.

The place to look is event.js -> mozile.event.handled(). The state  
that is returned from a successful command has a state.changesMade  
property. The event.node property holds the node which triggered the  
command.

You could fire a "mozileChange" (or just "change") event from handled 
() using event.node as the event.target. Then you can add your  
listener at the document's root to listen for "mozileChange" events.  
This wouldn't require specifying a listener with mozile.editElement 
(). The only trick is firing the event in a cross-browser way:  
mozile.event.dispatch() is an incomplete attempt.

There are other ways it could be done, but this should give you what  
you need to start. I look forward to seeing a patch :^)
