According to the news announcement, today is the day we can start using hooks! (as long as you live in the future like me - those of you in the past will need to catch up a day).
I have started a wiki page to discuss which hooks to add [1]. [...]

I can not edit the wiki page, so discussing here.
How about a hook that rebuilds kernel initramfs images? Something like:
[Trigger] Type = File Operation = Install Operation = Upgrade Target = boot/vmlinuz-linux Target = usr/lib/initcpio/*
[Action] Description = Updating Arch Linux initramfs image When = PostTransaction Exec = /usr/bin/mkinitcpio -p linux -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Best regards my address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* Chris cc -ox -xc - && ./x */b/42*2-3)*42);}
It only benefits one package, so seems pointless to move it in hooks. If you have custom kernels installed you must run mkinitcpio anyway for all of them. -- Ike
