[TYPO3-dev] Switching flexform-DS based on cType?

thanks for the hint - but it doesn't work - and now I found out why. The switch for the DS of the field pi_flexform is related to the field 'list_type', but in my case I would need to switch based on the field 'CType'. And whoever integrated the flexform-configuration for TABLES implemented this DS as default DS for pi_flexform - so it appears always, besides in extensions.

So now I would either have to add a custom field to the DB for my flexform or should try to find a way to set a value for the field 'list_type' if CType 'mailform' is selected. Any ideas how to do that?
