eg class.t3lib_userauthgroup.php

if (t3lib_extMgm::isLoaded('tt_news'))  {
   $this->TSdataArray[]='
   // Setting defaults for tt_news author / email...
   TCAdefaults.tt_news.author = '.$this->user['realName'].'
   TCAdefaults.tt_news.author_email = '.$this->user['email'].'
   ';
}

It's protected by isLoaded() but I don't like such "weak reverse 
dependencies". IMHO it's better have one more hook in the Core than such 
constructs. I disapprove in favouring specific extensions.
