[Typo3-dev] Observe creation of content elements

[Kasper Skårhøj]

For 3.6.1 or so there will most likely be a ton of new hooks in TYPO3
making such things possible. Having the feature you ask for has been
requested before.

Currently your best option is to make an extension class (in TYPO3
context, also referred to as "XCLASS") of "t3lib_tcemain" where you can
dig your way into a function like "insertDB()" or so in which you can
trigger you function.

It's not a bug, it's a missing feature.
