sorry for the bad description. The approach is, that you do not need a 
switchableControllerAction in flexform if you just want to change the 
initial controller and action.

Imagine the blog example. On a own, single page you want the new action 
of the Blog to be displayed. But the default action is Blog->index 
(because it is the first Controller/Action pair defined via 
Tx_Extbase_Utility_Extension::configurePlugin();)

You always have to click a link with
?tx_blogexample[controller]=Blog&tx_blogexample[action]=new
to reach the 'new' action.

With this patch it is possible, to manually define the default 
controller and action via Flexform without the 
switchableControllerActions statement but an own.

Yes, I know - but the downside is that you now can switch only between 
the new and the index action of the blog controller. No other controller 
and action is allowed.
So if you create a new action like Blog->edit you have to add it to the 
list Blog->index;Blog->new;Blog->edit and update every(!) tt_content 
element using this plugin/flexform.

Hope u understand what I mean :)
