That's true of course.

Until now I didn't find a function in the Typo3 Sourcecode which is doing something
similar than the "getObjectPathValue" method in the mentioned extension.
(Follow a "path" through an object/array structure)

Without this I don't know of a way how to return an value from deep inside some objects like TSFE.


Note: I didn't have a look at ObTS by Dan Frost but I suppose such things will be
possible with it ... so this extension pherhaps is a very small subset of ObTS functionality.

But its getting OT now ...
