Hey Masi,
you're right, currently there is much code for "common tasks" you have 
to write on your own. v.1 of extbase / fluid just provides the framework.
Bitmasks for with only one setter is not "really OO" but TYPO3 way. So 
if you have an viewhelper for that, make it public, next version could 
include a bunch of "TYPO3 v4 way" viewhelpers.
But they are not "portable" anymore.

You could think of an viewhelper <v4:tca.select property="xyz"> 
<v4.tca.check property="xyz"> ... automatically rendering the infos with 
tranlsation information derived from tca - should be no problem at 
all... but how to use in in v5?

Yes currently it's very much "duplicity" :)
