i truly understand your wish, and i agree that these modules are not 
nice code. This can be done if enough see the need for it.
And it's a bit like a rat tail - rewrite or merge with task center also 
would need rewrite of dynTabs, having TCEForms ready etc.

At the moment the code is working and i would like to see the hook in 
independant of rewrite the module.
