I have. But I want to avoid a regression at any cost. And your patch just looks to me like it could do that.
But it _has_ been already suggested that you could provide arguments for the existing msg-hook, which would not break anything, since the hook does not get any argument yet, and therefore existing hooks would be unaffected.
Also, the change would be non-intrusive, easy-to-review, and it would not take so much time away from the bug-fixing that we want to do right now in the rc-cycle.
Okay? Dscho
