$page.data in hooks.server.ts?

[qudo-code]

Setting up my hooks.server.ts to be a clean entry point and do the following.

1. Initialize some things for server to use, put them on event.locals. ✅
2. Initialize some things for client to use, put them on $page.data (like a universal load function) ❌

I can't figure out how to do step 2 without creating another file to handle this (+layout). Since this new layout file will only have around 3 lines of code (returning a local), it feels a little odd and like I could handle this higher up the pipeline.

It would be cool if when doing await resolve() I could pass in page data and locals to be factored in when rendering an event. If I could/can do something like the following, it would fix a lot of issues I've had with dir based routing in SvelteKit.

export const handle: Handle = async ({ event, resolve }) => {
        const response = await resolve(event, {
             locals: {},
             data: {}
        });

	return response;
};

Has anyone seen any similar patterns or other ways of doing this? TIA
