Have you tried "obts"? From its description:

"Object-TypoScript makes adding things to Typo3 easier by allowing you
to make a new datatype which can be used across you site in just one
file. You can add new TypoScript functions (like the old wrap and
insertData) to all ObTS datatypes by adding one function to an existing
class ? and you can use the function straight away in all datatypes and
for all attributes of datatypes."

Is that what you mean by "extend TypoScript itself"?

ObTs is an external extention, but its directly called in tslib_content,
if loaded.


Cheers,
Ernesto
