> In postModify* hooks like {{postModifyX(..., Descriptor newDesc)}}, there's no way of getting the old descriptor which was there before modification happened.
> Having both old and new descriptors will make the hooks more useful.
> We felt the need when we wanted to audit certain events but there was no way of deducing them by just seeing 'after-state' of modification.
> To keep the method signatures consistent, i have modified both pre and post hooks with new arguments which are well named and commented.
