settings is meant to be used as simple key-value collection and are not 
parsed by default.
IIRC the reasons are:
1. to keep the layers separated (e.g. don't render a CObject in the 
settings, but rather specify the TS object path*)
2. to pave the way to FLOW3 where you configure the plugin with YAML and 
setup CObjects with TypoScript.

I'm not saying, that this is the right way but I think that was the 
intension when it was decided not to parse the settings by default.

Could you quickly explain, where you make use of this id? Maybe we'll 
find a way..

Greetings

* like this for example:
plugin.tx_myext.settings.imageRenderer = lib.foobar
and then use a custom or the cObject view helper like:
<f:cObject 
typoscriptObjectPath="{settings.imageRenderer}">{user.image}</f:cObject>
