If the above mentioned use of f-l-f-r-f will be documented, the need
for a hook diminishes even further. It would only serve as a more
convenient way of achieving the same thing. So, no, I don't think the
hook is still necessary.

Yes. In AUCTeX I used a regular list, not a hook, for this purpose.

When experimenting with extension of the region to be fontified in
AUCTeX I advised `jit-lock-after-change' to do this extension and with
that piece of advice refontification of a multiline construct after a
buffer change happened immediately while without the advice it took a
few moments. Possibly as long as `jit-lock-context-time' IIUC.
