Hi Masi,

funny, but that was an idea i just thought about. Cause the kickstarter gui, 
extensionkey etc.
May be it could implemented in functions-module with a wizard creating these 
fields. TCA could be written to a file which is included from ext_tables.php 
or localconf.php. Should be no big deal ...
