Hello Franz (and Elmar!),

that's what we could call "TYPO3-extensins 2.0", because we're very 
flexible with lib/div.

Here's the collection of examples:
http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php/MVC_Framework/Extending_Extensions

This topic was just an example-section, but is worth an extra focus, 
because it's about the future of TYPO3-extensions. I'm adding your 
examples today/tomorrow.

If you have more in mind about this topic, then please extend the 
wiki-page (or write here).

kind regards
Daniel
