I'm proposing the following trivial patch to bring more
consistency to org-capture-mode's hooks.
By setting org-capture-current-plist before invoking
org-capture-mode in the capture buffer, users
can access the same variable in org-capture-mode-hook as they
would in org-capture-before-finalize-hook and
org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook.
org-capture-after-finalize-hook is the only outlier, but that
makes sense as the capture buffer is no longer current when it
runs.

Subject: [PATCH] Allow org-capture-mode-hook to access
org-capture-current-plist
Set buffer local org-capture-current-plist before putting capture buffer
in org-capture-mode. Allows hook functions to access the buffer local
version on the plist (consistent with before/prepare-finalize hooks).
