Please see the expose handler of webkitwebview.cpp. It is doing a call like 
FrameView::layougIfNeededRecursively. And instead of firing in
layoutTimerFired you could add  your signal to the ChromeClient. The
ChromeClient will get called whenever regions of the code 
change (but be aware that this might be called from within a paint too so
you need to defer an  update a bit).
