Apart from that, the rest of the code motion looks ok, though. Even
if it weren't for the hotplug case, have the container/group
more-or-less initialized before registering the listener makes more
logical sense to me.

Moving it does introduce more intermediate cleanup cases which need to
be handled, though..
