Hi Ries,

I think your concept a little too dynamic. I wouldn't do all that
evaluation for each and any call. Although it is nice to give the voter
direct success. I would do it once a day, or once an hour.

hour, other ranks depending on this once a day.

A base class of the library in extensions is usally included via typoScript
include. I guess that during page generation all TS is evaluated. So there
are chances that they are all included.

I can't confirm that details here. I never heard of  a feature of
intelligent "not including. How shoud that work? Better ask Kasper.

If this "base" classs, i.e. a controller, does always include further files
or only when actively needed, depends on the extension itself.
