Currently a reference list (<references /> in wikitext) complete redraws every
time an InternalItemNode is touched by a transaction. This is inefficient
because:

* Reference lists can be grouped, so a change to one InternalItemNode may not
affect that reference list at all.
* Changes to IternalItemNodes shouldn't change the ordering of the list, or any
items not touched by the transaction, so we only need to selectively update the
items in the list which have changed.
