[Typo3-dev] New hook suggestion.

[Martin Klaus]

Hi list,

Is it possible to vote for hooks? Then i will do it for this one ;-)
I'm a user of the roles extension and I've ran into the extdeveval problem 
too.

Stig's roles extension provides an big advantage for Typo3's
user rights management, but not being able to use it together with the 
extdeveval
extension out of the box is a big disadvantage.

So please add this backend hook, that allows tx_roles and other extensions 
to
use the top-menu frame at the same time.

regards and thanks in advance,
Martin Klaus
