Comment (by mgibbs189):

 > Having a single global wp.hooks now feels like an anti-pattern in the
 age of packages and modules, whereas including an instance of wp.Hooks in
 each component feels very much in-line with standard practice in JS.

 What if one plugin needs to modify or remove hooks defined from another
 plugin? Or remove '''all''' handlers attached to a hook name? How would
 that look w/ the component-based approach?

 @westonruter there's definitely pro's of component-based... but I still
 think the need remains for a  `wp.hooks` global store as the single source
 of truth -- regardless of whether it ''feels'' like an anti-pattern.
