Thanks for clarifying. I hadn't understood that distinction.

It occurred to me, after I sent my last e-mail, that someone might want one action after updating todo statistics and a different action after updating checkbox statistics. Using the same hook for both wouldn't be correct in that case.

So let me update my issue report/feature request:

-- If there is a hook to do something after updating todo statistics, then it would make sense to have a hook for updating checkbox statistics as well. That hook should be called with the same arguments (n-done n-not-done) so that the user could use one function for both, if desired.

I can do this pretty easily and update the documentation. I don't have FSF papers signed, but I'm willing to get that ball rolling as well.

But before spending any time on that, I want to ask if this is okay. I understand the objection against pressing org-after-todo-statistics-hook into service for checkboxes. If there's an objection against simply *having* a hook for checkboxes, I'm afraid I don't understand that.

Thanks for your patience,
hjh
