Comment (by Rarst):

 > we added a required namespace parameter explicitly so we could (find
 and) remove hooks. Is there any way we could add something like that to
 PHP hooks?

 Since API had already been established for many years it is not viable to
 introduce new mandatory behavior for complex callbacks.

 While new opt in behavior could be introduced, as above I strongly believe
 that would not be an adequate solution. We are not at API design stage
 here, we need solution that enhances long existing API in very wide use.

 I am busy with work at the moment, but I still intend to circle back to
 this and take a stab on a patch following my proposal.
