[TYPO3-core] RFC: Bug #6237: Hook request for Web>Page plugin "additional info" display

this would be a good improvement. 

However I think it is not fine to call this hook for every extension. 
Imagine you have an extension tx_example and written a hook to display the 
flexform on this page for this extension, then its hook function will also 
be called if the plugin is for extension tx_anotherexample. 

The hook should contain also the key of the extension for which you want the 
replace the CODE field.
