This patch makes me uneasy (especially during a freeze), but I'm willing to apply it if no one else objects. I don't see what kind of damage a hook might do in batch mode, but I can't convince myself that it's harmless either.

Well, I imagine anyone currently using mutt in batch mode on a regular basis (e.g. with cron) already has a working setup, and enabling hooks by default has the potential at least to break those setups.

If either way isn't documented (e.g. hooks do/don't work in batch mode) IMHO it can be seen as a bug that needs to be fixed. When it possibly breaks setups, we add a note to UPDATING.
