To make it less dependent:
$.fn.inDOM = function(){
var el = this[0];
while (el.parentNode) el = el.parentNode;
return el.nodeType == 9;
};
now you can also pass elements present in other DOM contexts.
Don't know if this modifies the intended usage, this will most
generally tell if the element is an orphan (not attached to any
document).
To account for both usages, it will be necessary to pass context
information (an extra parameter to specify the desired context).
