Framework Page handling
While I was working on the To-do extension, I had to re-create something similar to the index.php to generate an empty page, with just only my controls. I've put this piece of code into my extension. (Actually I copied it from the PageManager extension, but I had the same idea :P). What I want to say is... I'm working on a new extension which needs an empty page, and so again I have to add 30-40 lines with the same code. A question to Mark: could you add something like a template file "page.php" to the root of vanilla? This way developers can use that to build their own page.
Also, I can add tabs, even put them before the discussion tab... But how on earth can I tell the Framework to "startup" the application with this new tab? (Select it as default). Ofcourse, I could change the core, but I want to do it in an extension.
include("appg/settings.php");
include("appg/init_vanilla.php");
// 1. DEFINE VARIABLES AND PROPERTIES SPECIFIC TO THIS PAGE
// Ensure the user is allowed to view this page
$Context->Session->Check($Context);
// 3. ADD CONTROLS TO THE PAGE
$Page->AddRenderControl($Head, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_HEAD']);
$Page->AddRenderControl($Menu, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_MENU']);
$Page->AddRenderControl($Panel, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_PANEL']);
$Page->AddRenderControl($NoticeCollector, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_NOTICES']);
$Page->AddRenderControl($Foot, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_FOOT']);
$Page->AddRenderControl($PageEnd, $Configuration['CONTROL_POSITION_PAGE_END']);
// 4. FIRE PAGE EVENTS
$Page->FireEvents();

there's one there already that's almost identical to yours: extension.php. In the description it says "Description: A blank page for extensions". I must say I only discovered it recently myself.
