No. Dude. Read carefully.

As long as *your own* TCA-altering extension is included *after* every 
other extension, you can alter *any* TCA entry *without* modifying any 
extensions code but your own.

It's not that hard to understand if you follow the instructions I gave in 
my last posting. Create your own extension, put the following lines in 
ext_tables.php

loadTCA('tt_content');
debug($TCA['tt_content']);

and search for the key/value pairs you want to override. Of course this 
will work not only for tt_content, but any other database table that is 
configured in the TCA.

Yep, just as I thought.

Yes, since it's not in the TCA, the mthod above won't work and you need 
to come up with another solution.

Yes, ext_tables.php. Sorry for the confusion.
