I am implementing my own QF2 element (backgroundtext if someone remembers) and want to pass an additional setting/argument to the element constructor. What is the best way to do that? Things to consider: 1. It would work with $container->addElement(), which means I only have

    $attributes and $data parameters

2. $attributes is IMO only for tag attributes 3. $data is for "additional data". I *think* adding a new array key to $data as the setting is the correct way. What do you say?

Yes, your are right, that's the intended way. It should probably be a lot easier to implement "backgroundtext" now, with JS support in QF2 0.5
