 Instead of using a filter to register our callback, we could certainly use
 a global method, like core does today with things like register_post_type.

 I do appreciate what you proposed is not entirely dissimilar from the
 approach your GDPRWP project is using by having plugins call methods on an
 instance of GdprToolbox, but I don't think calling instance methods will
 be as familiar to your average plugin developer as using a filter or
 calling a global method.

 What do you think?
