 I suppose.  The problem is that this puts something at the end of the
 loop, but that's not guaranteed to be where a theme wants the "post
 extras" to go any more than the end of the_content is.  If we create
 common hooks that we encourage theme authors to use and then let plugins
 fall back to the_content (or exactly what you proposed above) then we can
 allow theme authors to decide where this kind of content goes, which I
 *think* is exactly who SHOULD decide...right?
