Uschi, as far as I understood, the functionality of ceflexform is part
of the "dam" extension, so no further extension is needed to have this
field added (added to dam by Renè 2006-11-12, ceflexform extension is
from 2006-02-07). So the removal of the suggestion should have been done
at that time.

I don't really understand why this should be part of "dam", but this is
another question. :) I would remove the tt_content additions completely
from "dam" main extension, and add them to dam_ttcontent (e.g.
tx_dam_images and tx_dam_files, which are not used anywhere, as far as I
know).

Cheers,
Ernesto
