Hi Nikolas,

to suggest a little but useful practicle example: 


A multicoloring searchword highlither


to replace/extend the searchword hightigther of eFAQ
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/extension-manuals/efaq/0.1.5/view/1/3/#id3062141

That would match your two concerns:

a) Finding a way to hook into the controller
b) Extending the view

c) Additionally it could demonstrate the addon pattern 
   i.e. "efaq__multicolorhighlithter" or shorter "efaq__msh" 


I think tx_lib_object would be the appropriate place to set general hooks.

Different possible solutions:

a) Classical Typo3 service for the highlighter
b) before, after, replace hooks -- maybe 3 instances of a) 
c) Using PEC
d) Writing a TS configurable controller
e) XCLASS

Regards

Elmar
