You're right, the names aren't consistent, which is why I added
the 's'.  It really isn't just one hook.  Maybe I'll have VM
honor vm-mode-hook and vm-mode-hooks.

As for the summary hook I assume this is mostly for the display
stuff I saw discussed on one of the Lucid Emacs lists.
Definitely an interesting and unforeseen use.  I'll add the hook.
