you're right, I know :)

I like full resolved dependencies. So if I use pear libraries I like to
install them also as extensions and depend on them (same stuff as all
the work in linux distributions).

I did it the t3lib_extMgm::extPath way. I knew that way but it's not a
transparent way and I have to modify each include and require.
Beside the fact of the rewrite I don't like the idea to have an extra
php function call for every normal include or require (specially if you
handle with many little classes).
