Note that there's already a pending patch by Steffen Kamper for this. 
However it got stuck with db_list, which required some special handling 
and the RFC about that particular problem got bogged down in 
discussions. However I would support progress on this topic for beta2, 
as changing all BE modules to use the dispatcher mechanism also reduces 
the inclusions of typo3/init.php, thus reducing the risks of 
interferences when changing something in that script.

Cheers
