sounds very useful.

If you only use singleView (like in your example) the API would have quite a 
lot of methods.
WHat about something like this:
t3lib_div::linkVars($extKey,$key,$value)?

With your example this would be like
t3lib_div::linkVars('myForm','uid',123);

Having such a function could return the full linkCode plus it might be cool 
to check whether $this->prefixId is used twice with the same namespace.
