> In order to potentially modify the data before returning it shouldn't we
be filtering instead and returning the filter variable?
That's a good question. But I would say no.
For many of these calls, the only thing returned at this stage is the ID
or a boolean representing whether or not the call succeeded. Adding a
filter doesn't add any value, but adding an action hook provides the user
with a way to further manipulate data or act on the content of a
successful call after it's completed. But there's no further output at
this stage to be filtered.
