Unclear It isn't clear what the removed surface field was used for or what effect the new parameter has on plugin hook loading.
What
The internal function that loads plugin hooks was given a new parameter that now feeds into the manifest-dependency resolver, where previously nothing was passed. At the same time, hook module records built while loading hooks.json and manifest hooks no longer carry a surface field that was previously attached to them.
Why
The finding does not say what consumed the surface field or what the new parameter is for, so the practical effect on plugin behavior isn't established here.

It isn't clear what the removed `surface` field was used for or what effect the new parameter has on plugin hook loading.
