This looks good. Maybe you should use the DOMWindowUtils methods from bug 643803 to add a test that shows that you can observe chrome events as well?

Also, please add these methods to the wiki documentation once you land this:

Nice that you've updated MDC, but I have no idea what TabChildGlobal is. Perhaps you could explain that too on MDC?

I think it is documented somewhere in MDC. Need to add a link from
SpecialPowers page to that page.
