Override or not

Hi all

I'm developing a cakephp+dojo web app. Everything work fine.
Really fine! I'm loving cakephp

But, there is a "but".

Due to Dojo (or better I) require some non standard html tags, I had to
rewrite partially the Form and Html helper, that now I call DojoHtml and
DojoForm overriding the core classes
This permit to call

$DojoForm->input, still letting cake magic happens and add some Dojo
related stuff (widget config, dojo.require)

The big issue is that on each cake core upgrade, I need to diff by hand
the code to find changes (eg Form::input() vs DojoForm::input() )
This is probably a problem due my bad php knowledge, but let me ask..

Is there a way to implement these core helper, without fork the files or
override the whole methods I need? (In Drupal I would call them "hooks")

Any hints??

Thanks in advance.
Luca
