Yes, actually i do that - i'm using the link from $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB'] 
for that. You can see the adapter here: 
http://forge.typo3.org/projects/extension-zfext/repository/entry/trunk/zfext/library/Zend/Db/Adapter/Typo3.php

Why is that dangerous?

I think this way should seperate the plugin settings from the settings 
extbase needs to run it (controller, action etc.). I find this sensefull 
too but it has the drawback that there are two setups for the plugin  
(More or less it's security by obfuscation). Thats why i'm asking around 
here: I'm not sure, which way to go and it might be hard to change it later.
