React is in the business of limiting its API surface, not increasing it. I think they have done a great job of it - libraries like this should exist in userland.

It seems like React could listen for visibilitychange itself to throttle its own events or virtual DOM processing. It wouldn't necessarily need to expose visibilitychange as a library API.
