Perhaps someone could write an add-fields-only wizard for the casual admin. 
The wizard won't have to say anything about creating an extension at all. 
The UI would let you add fields and place them into the TCE-forms.

And it wold make sure the extension is always loaded last. That is, when it 
is invoked to da any changes.

I know the kickstarter, but its UI is confusing and not really well suited 
for any admin who is not a developer.
