Description
Expected behavior of the wanted feature
I had some cases of wanting to modify the current playlist / file state in the end of the current file but it doesn't seem to be currently possible.
From the hooks documentation, the closest thing to it is the on_unload hook which doesn't work because of the this limitation:
It's not possible to resume playback in this state
Not sure if this is due to complexity or if there is something else that would make this feature infeasible.
Alternative behavior of the wanted feature
A different hook that would be ordered before the end-file event but allow resuming playback.

Research direction
Start with the hooks documentation and compare the on_unload hook with the end-file event. Determine whether playback can resume after on_unload while allowing playlist or file state changes, or whether a new hook before end-file is needed. Done means documenting or implementing a feasible behavior with its ordering and resume semantics.
