This pattern is known as "decorator pattern".

What about having something like this:

$view->assign('myobject',$myobject,'Tx_Fluid_View_PropertyDecorator');

(Third parameter optional)

The decorator could then take care of post-processing the property
values and you could use the the objects in the view templates like you
used to.

I would like the approach, but it somehow conflicts the
(format-)viewhelper idea.
