My hook *does* consume the stdin in one case, but in another case it
does no checks and so can immediately exit. 

Also, I didn't want it to be run once per updated ref as the update hook
is, since the tests it performs are rather expensive -- loading a perl
wiki engine in order to check that the changeset contains only changes to
wiki pages that are allowed based on the wiki's configuration.
