https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74648 introduced Node.prototype.append, among a few other DOM methods. Convert the following code: refElem.parendNode.insertBefore(newElem, refElem) to refElem.before(newElem) However, we can't safely convert all occurrences of "insertBefore" to "before". baseElem.insertBefore(newElem, refElem) refElem could be a null here. refElem.before(newElem) would cause an error.

I have found only one instance that satisfier the following requirement: elemA.parentElement.insertBefore(highlightNode, elemA); \ / \------------------ same elements ------------/ https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/981bae9952b1f312b89d362fd39768c075408669/Source/WebInspectorUI/UserInterface/Base/Main.js#L1990 Probably doesn't worth a patch.
