Re: [whatwg/dom] MutationObserver characterData:true and input value property changes (#781)

Hi again annevk,

(edited the original text above slightly)

I'm observing 3rd party pages from a browser extension / client-script.

Changes to the setter/constructors etc made in my code don't exist in the page's context where the changes to the input.value are being made.

The only way to get the changes into the page code's context would be to have a script loaded into the 3rd party page's context at doc load time which might not be suitable ( eg. from the user's perspective it affects all pages not just those selected as being of interest)

Something like the "change" event on the element would do if it fired when the input.value was set in JS - as it is, "change" only fires when the user makes the change through the UI ( you don't however want something that fires while the user is actively entering data ).
