But this proposed "prereply" hook would be equally generic as
"postlogin", "postsent", "signature", and most of the other hooks that
already exist. People can write whatever code they want for these
existing hooks. Why would mine be any different?

I suppose a "pre-compose" hook might be even more useful, as long as
there was a way to distinguish between new messages and replies.
