The immortal words:
<hyatt> i don't see why we would have any trouble with that
<hyatt> the parser can deal with elements getting yanked away by script

a simple fix

This fix will avoid the crash from trying to remove a node from a null parent, but in the case where the block has been detached by script, it will also skip reattaching it in its new location.

Needs test case and change log.
