Hi Nathan,

no comment on the specific code, but in general:
Yes, a few standardized hooks together with the parameters they should 
be taking would be great indeed. I like the idea of an ACCOUNT_PAGES 
hook, although I am not too wedded to the name. But something like 
ACCOUNT_LINKS, ADMIN_LINKS, DASHBOARD_LINKS would be sensible in my opinion.
