[TYPO3-dev] Get TS Setup within BE module

[Victor Livakovsky]

Hi, List.

I'm developing a BE module for the first time and many things are strange 
and new for me.
One of them: is there any way to get TS setup of a template, merged from 
root to current position (my module is within 'Web' section)? Or all BE 
module configuration should be in Pgae TS config and taken by 
t3lib_BEfunc::getModTSconfig ?
Also I've found an article [1], that shows how TSFE may be enabled at BE. 
But I don't want to invoke whole FE engine only for fetching one 
configuration setting from TS template.
And is it good idea to do such invoking? Is there any security risk or some 
bad style in it?
