I don't think we want to fire the REGISTRY_START event until after the full application context is loaded, otherwise EventHookProvider consumers of that event type might not be loaded/ready yet. Take a look at the `ApplicationListener<ApplicationReadyEvent>` interface, that could be a nice solution to this.
