[TYPO3-mvc] TYPO3 requires Fluid and Extbase?

["Christian Müller (Kitsunet)"]

Hi,
as I wanted to work on the install tool anyway (what about that project? 
We maybe should combine all ideas into one big "install tool overhaul" 
project, with steps) this looks like a good idea to me, but I give to 
think, that this might lead to BE logins and install tools that have no 
signs of TYPO3 anywhere, which I do not like very much. You could 
rebrand the whole CMS that way.

This seems to be difficult in some places, but maybe it is possible. We 
could disable some things that rely on ExtBase if it is disabled?

+1

I can help, as I want to help with Installer AND Fluid ;-)

Also a good idea, +1 in 4.4
