Lukas, The purpose of my message was mainly to promote a paradigm that is not or not-well know by many devs.
AOP is not the solution to all the problems, it is just a tool that every developers should have in their toolbox close to the Di, Event, ... By giving some pointers to docs / code may be some more developers will learn about this paradigm and it will possibly help them in one of their future project. (but I guess you understand excatly what promoting a new paradigm is).
