    We've already discussed this.  Rather than repeating the reasons, why
    don't I refer you to the list archives for the reasons why restrictive
    hooks were chosen?  They largely boil down to an assurance argument.
    
    On a personal note, I find it ironic to see that, here I am defending
    LSM's use of restrictive hooks.  I was one of the original proponents of
    authoritative hooks.  Eventually, others convinced me that restrictive
    hooks are a better match for LSM's goals and the list reached rough
    consensus on that point, but my original proposal was indeed for
    authoritative hooks.
