I'm sorry to come back to this this much later. However, I've been
looking at the transformations and they seem to be pretty much what I
need.
However, I cannot figure out how I can add my own transformations to
standard fields. The documentation lists a TCA configuration but I
don't get it where exactly it writes that stuff in the TCA. In other
words, how do I make my new transformation show up in the $modes array
in RTE_transform?

This might all just be due to a poor understanding of the TCA. But it
would be nice if you gave me another clue that goes beyond the core API
documentation.

Cheers,
Christian
