Comment:

 These settings screens are due for an overhaul. In 3.9 we talked about
 combining all of them to one screen. We've also talked about overhauling
 the settings markup (no more tables), and also talked about a new settings
 API.

 I get that a lot of this is just 'talk' for now, but this ticket is asking
 for about very generic hooks that will be very difficult to support if
 *any* changes occur. They're also very generic hooks on long-standing,
 long-unchanged pages. If it took until now to ask for them, I think that's
 a good indication of demand.

 I'd suggest you make your own settings page if you need to get around such
 limitations.
