We had a discussion about automating the call to updateMethods

Ali had suggested something similar[1]. I think your concern
was that it would get called multiple times, but shared static
module constructors runs once a program (static module
constructor runs once per thread).

Ah yes...So the problem is that registerMethods emits static
ctors that fill data structures representing the methods and the
specializations. They have to run - all of them - before
updateMethods. Thus, sadly Q's suggestion won't work.
