Maybe some mysterious package wants to save some additional files in the
sources directory, or anything even more strange...?
No, I can't really think of anything sound.

OTOH having pre- and post-hooks for all steps /except one/ does not look
very polished, and I think the effort to maintain an unused hook is
minimal.

So I would keep Maxime's patch as-is, unless there is a solid
reason to do otherwise.
