The content of the "pi_flexform" information depends on what the plugin 
that reads them wants to do with them. So it depends on the contents of 
the "list_type" field, the "flexform_ds.xml" file, and also if the 
plugin really makes use of the pibase flexform functions to load those 
stuff.

So if you have 2 different plugins in one tree, 
"pi_flexform.sheetName.setting" might conflict.

Maybe we need to include pi_name in between:

TCAdefaults.tt_content.pi_flexform.user_plugin_pi1.mySheet.myVar = xyz

where user_plugin_pi is the piKey defined in ext_tables.php for that 
flexform.
