That's fine.  foo.insertBefore(bar, null) does the same thing as 
foo.appendChild(bar).  See 
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-Core-20040407/core.html#ID-952280727 
(and DOM2 Core has identical language):

   "Inserts the node newChild before the existing child node refChild.
    If refChild is null, insert newChild at the end of the list of children."
