[TYPO3-english] dynamic content snippets

[Mario Šargač]

Hi Victor,

thanks for a suggestion. Unfortunately I'm not good at extension 
development, so it would take some time for me to enhance your base to 
accommodate what I have on mind. I've explained this furter in my reply 
to Søren, you might look like, if you wish.

The basic idea is to be able to mix regular content with "variables", 
which would be handled on one place.

If I don't find any possibility of doing this, I'll use simplified 
solution, like placing whole content chunks, organized in one system 
folder, where they'd be edited at one place. Then I would be inserting 
those content elements either by referencing them, either by using TS 
(lib.mycontent = ...)

Best,
Mario
