I doubt much thought has gone into it.

Since, as you say, all the FakeBasic code needs to happen before the 
real check_user_id hooks run, I'd reckon it would make more sense to 
move it to e.g. the post_read_request hook (ssl_hook_ReadReq), rather 
than trying harder to win the hook ordering game?
