Hm. Problem is, this will still show up as "hook" documentation. I
wonder if we want a separate area to describe functors... $form_id
.'_validate' and such qualify as well, and it would be nice to get those
documented too.

Per a recent discussion on the devel list about the confuncion between
node "hooks" (which are only called for the module defning the node
type) and normal hooks (called for all modules), came this suggestion
from chx:


http://lists.drupal.org/pipermail/development/2007-January/021677.html


Accordingly,  a patch is attached for the HEAD developer docs.  


If you don't like "functor" then remake the patch with something else
ASAP.
