The concept is the same, we still need configuration options.

E.g. $object->stdWrap can work exactly just it was, the idea is just to make
things more flexible and easier. If I want to code in PHP, I should do it
directly in CMS, wherever I want.

I want to be able to output HTML by simply using:

$page->output = "Hello world";

instead of confusing:

page.10 = TEXT
page.10.value = Hello world

You cannot make it procedural and that is necessary.

You have to be expert to build sites in Typo3 - that has to be changed.
