[TYPO3-mvc] TypoScript manipulation per object property

it would be less writing in your templates and make templates less 
complicated to read.

In my eyes it's clearly related to the view and not part of the 
controller logic - nor part of a models domain. It's about rendering 
content in the view - thus should be configured/done in the view.

The downside of this is, that you have to implement that getter in every 
model you like to use a proxy for - doesn't sound much flexible to me.

this is also possible with my suggestion.

As I wrote above - it would only make sense in a viewHelper in my eyes 
and would not be harder to implement as inside a controller like you 
suggested.
