I like the idea and it would be great if we could extend it to hooks as
well. I know that you can implement hooks that themself read such a
structure but its not that neat as git handling this itself.

That would be a great way to distribute configurations to users as you
could say: "Put this file into your gitconfig.d/hooks.d folder and you
get this and that kind of configuration."
