[Rick Waldron]

Is it too late to change all these "fooHooks" into something a little more organized, like... ​https://gist.github.com/973761

+1, Sounds great, as long as we keep the original hook points as well (maybe we can have special events in here as well?).

-1, straight up yak shaving. no benefit to users. (I don't think anyone will be iterating over all hooks)

[Rick Waldron]

@paul.irish the proposal isn't meant to directly benefit the users, it's primarily for improving maintenance and organization of internal code.

-1, This seems like rearranging the sock drawer to me, is there any pro to balance the con of going back and fixing all the existing code?

+0, It seems like all these "fooHooks" are just kind of ugly looking, but on the other hand, at least they give primacy to the thing that's being manipulated - "css" comes before "hooks" - whereas with the object of jQuery.hooks, there's just this abstract concept of "hooks" - which most people thought jQuery had long before we ever had any. (Heard the phrase "jQuery hooks into the document ready event" recently enough?) So it kind of makes it more confusing for people who need to use it, but yeah, it certainly is less than "appealing" as is...
