No, that is not the usual rule.

There have been suggestions that it would be better/cleaner to make
decl nodes accessible from rtl, and associate the needed information
with decls, rather than identifiers.  In that case, the question
becomes moot.  I don't understand the issues well enough to comment.

In any case, if there is agreement that a target-specific identifier
hook makes sense, I can easily enough modify it after it is checked
in to fit in my framework.
