Found a 'hack' to accomplish this, if anyone know of a reason NOT to do
this / a better way to do this, please let me know ...

$page_types=array(1,2,3,4);

$arr=t3lib_div::_GP('edit');
if(count($arr)) {       
        $s=array_keys($arr['tt_news']); 
        $res=$GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->exec_SELECTquery('doktype','pages','
uid='.intval($s[0]));
        list($doktype)=$GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->sql_fetch_row($res);
        if(in_array($doktype,$page_types)) {
                $TCA['tt_news']['columns']['type']['config']['default']=$doktype;       
/* Setting user TS config also works, but page TS config doesn't however ..
(?) */
                //t3lib_extMgm::addUserTSConfig('                               
                //      TCAdefaults.tt_news.type = '.$doktype.'
                //');
        }
} else ....

This way I can create new pages where content in TCEFORMS is rendered
according to the page doktype ;-)

Happy hunting :-)
