I find this proposed behavior here a bit controversial ... the _before_ "_appends_ with null, the _after_ "_prepend_" with null as first child ... am I the only one not fully getting the use case for prepending as first child with a method called _after_ ?

@WebReflection Sorry, got my directions switched up. `elem.insertBefore(node, null)` prepends, and I meant for `elem.insertAfter(node, null)` to append.
