Hey Max
Thanks for answering.
I tried accessing it also through the templates ID but the doesnt work
either because the input element is simply not present. Thats why I started
using using setTimeout (see my second entry) which allows it to be added to
the DOM meanwhile but it really feels hackish. I am looking for a on-load
like callback on input-field.
