This is an interesting idea, but I'm afraid it might be difficult for
forges to implement support for as opposed to something built-in.  If
that's not as difficult as I might think it is, then perhaps this is a
viable option once fleshed out.

I'll add that Windows (and our particular environment) makes this
troublesome as well.  Currently we see a base cost of 300ms for starting
up a process.  Given how many identities git-log and friends would be
chugging through, any hook would need to be capable of staying open --
feeding identities through stdin.  I'm not sure run_hooks supports that
right now.
