Yes, I saw that you have these lines:

>         $this->headerHTML = $this->additionalHeaderData['headerHTML'];

But I do not understand why one more variable is needed.
additionaHeaderData is meant to contain HTML already. Why ajax or any
other extension cannot use:
	$GLOBALS['TSFE']['tx_ajax_pi1-js'] = $xjaxa->getJavaScript();
	$GLOBALS['TSFE']['tx_ajax_pi1-css'] = '<link ... />';

I already tried this in one my private extension, it works!

I see no reason to have one more variable and set value of this variable
to another variable later. My main reason for -1 is that TSFE already
very large. Why to expand it further if it does not give any new
functionality but just wraps existing?

I understand it with JSCode and JSImgCode, it is printed when necessary.
May be we should have another such solution for ajax or more generic
solution for optional html, which should be printed sometimes.

This headerHTML and function are just wrappers for additionaHeaderData.
They do not give any new functionality, the same can be achieved by
using additionalHeaderData directly.

Dmitry.
