OK I saw this function and I begin to see how I can do it, probably by 
adding my special AddEIT as it is different enough that I cant reuse 
what is already done for "normal" EIT.

I can do it section by section. But as there are different tables for 
the titles/times and the summaries, I would need to be able to submit 
the title/showing times/duration and then later on the corresponding 
summaries. Is that possible?
Thx for all your help.
I will try to open a ticket with some code, for review, ASAP.
