Easier chaining of helpers that require re-render

[wdfinch]

Right now helpers like move or append trigger a rerender. Therefore one must complete (trigger the rerender) before another can be called. This can get tedious and messy if multiple helpers need to be called one after the other.

I propose adding a helper that will chain these together. I see this working by changing the internal state of the form synchronously based on the method and then re-rendering the component once at the end. This not only leads to cleaner code but also better performance.

What do you think?

i think this is possible if we introduce another option.

append({ test: 'test' }, { shouldRender: false });
prepend({ test: 'test' }, { shouldRender: false });
prepend({ test: 'test' });

Ya that works. However the user must know to have it render on the last one and always included that option on subsequent ones. Might be a little safer and less repetitive to use a method that does the behavior by default.
