Hi,
I'm looking into hooking in the get_header procedure.
Basically, I want to insert data just after the openning of <body>
Of course, I could just edit the template but I'm running MU and I need this to work just out-of-the-box on any theme.
Any clue? Is this the right hook?

You can do it by hooking into wp_head and then doing some tricks to put it after the <body>. Check out http://xsnp.livelyblog.com/ and look at the global_theme_options.php file for some code that replaces the <body> tag with some CSS. The template hook is before the </head> so that's why you'll need to do some tricks instead of just calling the hook. Specifically, look at the globalthemes_build_style() function.
Hope that helps.
Interesting... I wanted to solve this problem and just decided it was easier to add my own new filter "wp_top_of_body" and call it in each theme. Sure it meant modifying every theme, but frankly, you're not going to have a very compelling site if you're afraid to modify themes... most themes out there don't support pages properly, or avatars, or lots and lots of other "table stakes" features.
