What?
Rename the handbook page currently entitled "Block Hooks" to "Block Filters".
Why?
To distinguish from the new "Block Hooks" feature, which is conceptually very different.
How?
By renaming the handbook page from "Block Hooks" to "Block Filters".
AFAICT, the handbook page makes no direct reference to hooks, other than the title; furthermore, the relevant client-side
@wordpress/
package happens to be called@wordpress/hooks
. Reading the page, it’s all about filters though (both on the client and server sides), whereas "hooks" traditionally denotes the union of filters and actions — the latter of which are pretty much absent from the page.Finally, note that the filename has already been
block-filters.md
before.Thus, changing the title to "Block Filters" seems warranted.
