I would propose the extent property `modification-hook', and to run it
with `run-hooks'.  But since the name is so similar to the existing
FSF functionality, why not call it `modification-hooks'?

Yes, it's a list of functions to be run with `run-hooks'.

No, *not* to overlay.el (well, maybe later).  We need that
functionality at the level of extents C code.

The elisp reference manual would probably suit you better.
