That's all well and good, but as the entry is in the database, it is not able
to keep a pointer to a routine in memory (or else the pointer may become
invalid after restart, without clearing the database, or else you have
multiple servers, or .....)

Having a hint entry is only half the battle.  The other half is in keeping a
registry of function pointers to call when the state of the device changes.
