ok. Comment was by reading only.

yes, that's a conceptional problem. Imho ajax.php has to be a general 
API for ajax request, independent from BE or FE, it has to work for both.

see above, imho unnessecary hassles for devs.

One good step in a new direction is the ExtDirect API integration. I 
used it a lot in new EM and it works great, and it's independent from 
BE/FE mode. Same is needed for ajax.php, Ajax is Ajax, so why 
differentiate the TYPO3_mode ;)
