After playing around some more and finding some examples of delegates, the
term 'hook' comes to mind here... it's implemented as a runtime feature of
GNUstep rather than part of the language by the looks - messages get
passed to the delegate object before the main object.
I find hooks very useful in Emacs and I can see how they would be useful
here too...
