Hi Pierre,

I would think of a little extension that extends $TCA in example by new
form types. Than you still need to find a way to preselect the form type.

If you problem is not to use tt_news in two different ways on the same
page, but you simple want to use it in two different ways for two different
folders then "elba" could do the trick:

http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/search/elba/0.5.0/details/class.tx_elba_be.php/

You set a flag per folder in pageTS. By this flag you trigger wich
definition of $TCA to use.
