# Feature: #78842 - Let FLUIDTEMPLATE mimic an actual extbase web request

See [forge#78842](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/78842)

## Description

Adds the possibility to let the FLUIDTEMPLATE content element mimic an
actual extbase web request.
This makes it possible to access submitted data like in extbase with
`->controllerContext->getRequest()->getArguments()`

## Impact

Data which was submitted through a `FLUIDTEMPLATE` content element are now
available within

```php
$view->getRenderingContext()
     ->getControllerContext()
     ->getRequest()
     ->getArguments()
```

## Affected Installations

Any installation which use the `FLUIDTEMPLATE` content element which are
initialized with the following settings:

```typoscript
extbase.pluginName
extbase.controllerExtensionName
extbase.controllerName
extbase.controllerActionName
```
