bodytext can be used as well, also other fields of tt_content.

The question is, what is needed for this concept?

We need
* new cObject (container for fields)
* TS syntax to define
* section-syntax for repeating objects
* tce-handling for this object
* TCAforms rendering

Would it be best to make an extension doing this? There is an interface 
needed for creating such objects as CE. I think a flexform would be good 
for creation, saving shouldn't be done as XML
