I don't think your example warrant an extra hook. Replacing strings is something that org-export-filter-final-output-functions is perfectly capable of doing IMO. It’s a bit of a hassle to work with transcoded strings, but having a hook would not change this. Rasmus -- Tack, ni svenska vakttorn. Med plutonium tvingar vi dansken på knä!
