Ok I use the 
processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations($stat,$tbl,$id,&$fieldArr,&$ref)
hook from class.t3lib_tcemain.php
Does anything argue against the use of this hook?

Hmm seems to be ok:

$res = $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->exec_SELECTquery('pi_flexform', 
'tt_content','uid='.$id, null, null, 1);

while ($row = $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->sql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
    $flexcontent = $row;
}

$flex_array = t3lib_div::xml2array($flexcontent['pi_flexform']);


// here is my desired flexform value
$flex_array['data']['maint']['lDEF']['maintmode']['vDEF'];


If I can do anything better let me know please!
