Comment (by rilwis):

 Thanks for your comment, @pento!

 The WordPress hooks with `post_` or `pre_` unlikely match this context.
 They're used for internal actions, like before or after **doing
 something**. While in the front end, there's exclusively and clearly a
 **context** (HTML block). The hook tells more about the location than
 action. That's why the words `*_before`, `*_after`, `*_top`, `*_bottom`
 make sense.

 Also, this is **the first** hook in the front end for themes (except
 required `wp_head` and `wp_footer`), it will create a kind of standard for
 future hooks. I'm thinking about the hooks for content areas in Gutenberg
 Phase 2.

 For those reasons, I think it's a good time to start a naming convention
 now.
