    Description

      We have JavaScript widgets that have been written using Prototype.js and which listen to custom events. For instance the date picker listens to the xwiki:dom:updated event and re-initializes the date text input elements that have been replaced. Rewriting all these widgets with something based on jQuery (or a full fledged framework) is a lengthy process and until it's done we should be able to trigger these events from jQuery code.

      require(['jquery', 'xwiki-events-bridge'], function($) {
        $(document).trigger('xwiki:dom:updated', {'elements': $('.some-container').toArray()});
      });
