Okay.  I've renamed such functions in Org when it made sense,
I've kept the -hook suffix for others.

Agreed.  Another idea in the same vein is that those functions are 
only relevant when run within hooks.  Still, it may sometimes just be
laziness so I tried to give some Org functions explicit names.

Thanks for the explanations,
