I would like to understand why both of you have not considered the point

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?
