Ok.

$tempColumns = Array (
		'newUntil' => Array (
			'exclude' => 1,
			'label' => 'LLL:EXT:cms/locallang_tca.php:pages.newUntil',
			'config' => Array (
				'type' => 'input',
				'size' => '8',
				'max' => '20',
				'eval' => 'required,date',
				'checkbox' => '0',
			)
		),
);

t3lib_extMgm::addTCAcolumns("pages",$tempColumns,1);

The problem is the default value is for the database '0'

For existing pages can't force to change.

And Copying pages takes automatic '0' value.
Just creating new pages, works.


Maybe should even set NULL accepted in the database and without
default value - or does it cause some problems.
