I'm fine with something more general, but I don't think I follow the
particulars you have in mind. Even w/ a callable, wouldn't that only be
invoked *once* by clang-tidy, when it creates the class? What kind of
statistics do you have in mind?

Indeed. The current design does preclude a (non gross) way of collecting state
over multiple invocations. Since this is rare, I think that's fine for now.
But, our plan is to add support for a Translation Unit level API that supports
things like collecting state, adding and removing header includes, inserting
using decls and any other TU level operations.
