Comment:

 I'm +1 on the idea of passing the current query as a second parameter to
 each filter in WP_Query.

 You could then do all sorts of neat things, like adding custom query vars:

 {{{
 $my_query = new WP_Query(array('fav_posts_for_user' => 1));
 }}}

 I'll see if I can make a patch.

 The Recent Posts widget actually doesn't override the $wp_query. I've
 added a temporary workaround, but it's not as good as I'd like it to. That
 said, there is a do_action_ref_array() early on in the WP_Query stuff.
 Checking over there might be a good option as well.

 See #12320 for the Recent Posts widget issue.
