Thanks for your help. Finally I put my extended code in the definition 
of the extension. It looks to work fine... but not really clean. It 
seems that only my folder lib/radiant can't be loaded :(, is there any 
way to force to load this folder ?

I saw when creating a new class, it will load it only if I call an 
instance of it; only at this stage radiant/rails will look in the lib 
folder. Then in the case of Radiant::AdminUI I guess it will not look in 
lib as the class already exist.

Is it a matter of Radiant extension mechanism ?

I will try to improve my code and all suggestions are welcome :)
