We could have special hooks to support Emacspeak and its likes,
without moving everything to Lisp.

Advice IMO is a kludgey way to get features which are missing in the
infrastructure; if large and important (to some) packages such as
Emacspeak need features that are missing, it is better to add such
features than to rely on kludges forever.
