[TYPO3] Best way to let a visitor or FE user create a page

[Sacha Vorbeck]

Hi,

I`m in need of inspiration/ideas. I`d like to create a site that allows 
visitors to create a new page. Only a record in the pages table, nothing 
else. One way would be to create a frontend-plugin that renders a form 
and creates the page record with the submitted data. But on the other 
hand we already have everything that is needed in the Backend: functions 
to check for valid input, definition of input fields etc. It doesn`t 
seem very efficient to me to re-code all that stuff for a frontend-form.

So is there a way to use the BE-stuff in the frontend? I think there are 
already extensions that allow FE-Users to log into the BE but I think 
the BE is too complex even if you remove everything that is not needed. 
So the best way would be a user-friendly form embedded in the normal 
website. I don`t think front-end editing is user-friendly enough.

I`m looking forward to your suggestions and ideas.
