As Rowan has mentioned, you couldn't find an e-mail because it hasn't
actually been announced yet. Larry and I are still working on the
details.

We haven't fully decided on whether we want to allow types in hook
parameters, or whether the type should be implicit. The main
motivation for allowing types is that one could accept broader types
in and convert the value to the property target type. But I'll need to
verify the technical feasibility before we make this decision.

I'm not quite sure what this means, as this doesn't involve hooks or properties.
