Yes, this is exactly what I meant. :)  I have been following the 
core_api docs you mentioned to do this.

And indeed, the extension class -file- is included.  The class is just 
never instantiated because, as far as I can tell, the class name for the 
plugin is inserted -explicitly- into the typoscript in addPItoST43().  I 
would somehow have to specify the name of my extended class I think?

I could add to my ext_localconf.php something like this:

t3lib_extMgm::addPItoST43($_EXTKEY,'controller/class.ux_cal_controller.php','_controller','list_type',1);

But then this would conflict with the base extension call that included 
tx_cal_controller.

Is there no way to do what I am attempting?

Thanks,
Ryan
