it is good that you want to implement this.

However I think it would be better to build it like this:

Crete an altFieldMarkers array TypoScript configuation.

plugin.tt_products.products.altFieldMarkers.price = PRICEFIELD_MARKERNAME

Normally always the field names are used for the markers.

> plugin.tt_products.products.table = myproductstable
This would be fine.

Use the lib/class.tx_ttproducts_db.php and the class  tx_ttproducts_db
for this implementation. This is needed also for the language overlay
support.
All database access shall use the class tx_ttproducts_db. In the
initialisation part the table and field names can be assigned.

Contact me per email for more details and questions to this.
