ah, that helps a lot.

Some more thoughts:

"The package tools shall pass, at most, a single argument to each hook that
is run. "

I think putting arbitrary limits on that, is unneccessary, and possibly
harmful. It's usually better to define a MINIMUM set of arguments that is
passed, but allow room for future expansion.


Hmm... was going to comment on something else, but will think about it a
bit more first....
