Advising is a good user-side mechanism, much more powerful than hooks.
Since it is /user-side/ you should know that it has been modified with
your own advice.

Anyway filling is mode's job, not user's. Again, if you want to take
over this job, use `defadvice', in your config. A hook is pointless, if
not dangerous (the task is not trivial and there are many pitfalls that
could break the structure of the document), here.

No hook in `org-fill-paragraph', please.


Regards,
