Maybe record-buffer-functions and buffer-list-functions (plural)
where Elisp packages could add own function to a list of functions.
Then core primitives will construct a composite list by appending
values returned by these functions.  An example of buffer-list-functions:
'(window-buffer-list-function tab-buffer-list-function 
frame-buffer-list-function).
created with code in

window.el:
  (add-to-list 'buffer-list-functions 'window-buffer-list-function)

tab.el
  (add-to-list 'buffer-list-functions 'tab-buffer-list-function)

frame.el
  (add-to-list 'buffer-list-functions 'frame-buffer-list-function)
