In all the samples here I have stitched into computer or napkin paper pulp.
Using a leather punch certainly made the stitching easy. I found that when stitching into paper by hand I had to make sure that my needle was perpendicular to the paper, otherwise the paper could fragment. I thought that using hooks and eyes might add interest when joining papers together, say on the corner of a box, but I would want to be able to paint the metal to an appropriate colour to blend in with the rest of the embroidery, so that it added texture to the piece. Probably hand stitching would also be necessary behind the hooks and eyes for additional stability.
