I believe patches 1 and 3 should be squashed and come before patch 2.

In general in your code, please avoid camelCase.

Finally, I am not convinced yet by this implementation, I don't know
what to propose yet, but I am not particularly in favor of adding such
hooks. Can you point to a datasheet (url and page) where I could get
more information?
