[TYPO3-core] FYI72: Feature #10374: Add helper functions for additional frontend editing controllers and views

[Jeff Segars]

Hey guys,

This is a SVN patch request and will be committed in 72 hours if there 
are no objections.

Type: Feature

Bugtracker reference: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=10374

Branches: Trunk

Problem:
To support additional frontend editing controllers (ie. TemplaVoila) and 
view (ie. fe_edit_advanced) a couple simple helper functions are needed.

Solution:
The getJavascriptIncludes() method does nothing in the default 
controller that the core provides, but the TemplaVoila controller will 
provide an additional Javascript file that extends client side frontend 
editing to account for FlexForm pointers.

The forcePreview() method is used to set $this->ext_forcePreview 
externally. The upcoming fe_edit_advanced extension requires that this 
property is always set.


Notes:
Since these are helper methods for functionality that is not present in 
the core, its difficult to test. If someone does want to test these 
however, I can point you toward the fe_edit_advanced extension and the 
TemplaVoila controller. Otherwise, we're approaching the point where 
fe_edit_advanced will run as a normal extension without any patching. 
Should be ready for public testing by the middle of next week!

Thanks,
Jeff
