No. There's no need to extend it. The hook class can be a base class. 
The only reason for extending t3lib_db is DB logging for profiling or 
accessing other DBs like the DBAL extension does.

Well, if you really want to create the pages on any INSERT to your 
product table then you're on te right track. But like I said in my 
previous answer check the $table argument. Otherwise any change on any 
table will create a new page. And don't set the uid as it won't be used 
anyway if you request a new record. OTOH you can probably use the $id 
argument as your pid.

What I don't know is how you can check if the hook is called for an 
INSERT or for an UPDATE. Your usecase asks for a new page only for an 
INSERT.

BTW, you simpy can use a fixes key like NEWmyPage. No need to fuss 
around with md5 and rand. TCEmain only checks for NEW at the beginning 
and requires it to be unique in the array - simple if you have only one 
item in the array :)
