As far as I can see, there is currently no way for an extension to react to a page being undeleted (restored) or an edit being rolled-back. This means that extensions which cache meta-data based on the page contents will go out of sync if either of these situations occur. I don't know if either of these warrant a new hook, or whether ArticleInsertComplete (for undelete) and ArticleSave/ArticleSaveComplete (for rollback) should be re-used. I am happy to implement a patch for this if someone can advise me on the best method.
New hooks sound appropriate to me.
Article::onArticleCreate() looks like the right place for a lower-level article creation hook than 'ArticleInsertComplete'. However, Article::onArticleCreate() is used as a cache clearing function from Title.php which makes it a misnomer. I recommend separating it into a function which reflects its name and calls an 'OnArticleCreate' hook and a new cache-clearing function with a name to match which can be called from Title.php when moving articles.
'ArticleUndelete' hook added in r19441. Repurposing bug to the rollback hook.
Handled via ArticleRollbackComplete, as of 1.12.
