Is there a way - using jQuery or otherwise - to monitor the DOM for insertions, deletions, updates to styles, etc?

When you update the DOM, the reflow and repaint happen. Every time the DOM changes, the browser needs to recalculate the CSS, do a layout and repaint the web page. React doesn't really do anything new. It's just a strategic move.
MutationObserver is a built-in object that observes a DOM element and fires a callback when it detects a change. We'll first take a look at the syntax, and then explore a real-world use case, to see where such thing may be useful.
See "MutationEvent" elements in here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/DOM_event_reference but those are deprecated.
jQuery now features a way to attach events to existing AND future elements corresponding to a selector: http://docs.jquery.com/Events/live#typefn
It may be a trick you could use for lack of proper DOM Node modification info.
