Why?  How is it at all awkward?

You don't say why you want to make the patch.  It looks to me like you
want to replace a normal abnormal hook with a single function.  This is
less flexible (unless one jumps through hoops).  It is also
incompatible; it will break applications which use the existing
interface.

Why do you want to break these applications?  What benefits will the
new single function scheme bring?

I'm against this incompatible change (which I don't fully understand).
