 Why not for JSON?  Why not for Unit Testing?

 I'm not saying that your use cases should not be done, I'm saying that
 they would not be accomplished by filtering the part name, as proposed.

 Yes, each of the specific functions has a a "pre" action hook (like
 `get_header` and `get_footer`), but nothing after the template part is
 finished, so the current method would be to know the order they are called
 in so that the next one can do the finish work on the previous.
 Or, add an action for `all`, and apply logic to the action names that
 start with `get_template_part`.
 Or, any filtering of the HTML should be done on the client end.
