This is the hook for commands that are invoked just before dpkg is called to install the new packages. aptitude doesn't even invoke this directly; it happens behind the scenes when the apt library is told to run dpkg. In order to get the effect you want, you would need a new hook that ran before any download started, and aptitude would have to explicitly ask to invoke it (as would all the other apt frontends).
