Description
### Problem
The `htmx:afterRequest` and `htmx:afterOnLoad` events are not being fired when the DOM no longer contains the element nor any of its hierarchy.
### Background
I have a popup action menu powered by [tippy](https://atomiks.github.io/tippyjs/v6/getting-started/) that dynamically positions some buttons. These buttons cause htmx requests.
By the time the HTMX request is complete, the entire dom subtree of that menu (including the trigger button) have been removed from the DOM.
This results in `htmx:afterRequest` and `htmx:afterOnLoad` events not being triggered.
### Debugging
Indeed, the trigger's parent hierarchy bottoms (tops?) out without getting to ``.
