I didn't say you weren't allowed to ask here - just wanted to mention 
that a general answer could have been found on those other lists.

well, to get a "clean" $this->settings array you would have to fire up 
the complete extbase bootstrap and then fetch the configurationManager 
and let it return the type 
"Tx_Extbase_Configuration_ConfigurationManager::CONFIGURATION_TYPE_SETTINGS". 
But this is no official API although you can of course use it on your 
own risk (no API means that the names could change or the class could 
get renamed in future versions if we need to sync something with FLOW3 
again). Also it would be quite some overhead just to get a TS setting. 
So unless you don't need extbase domain-logic/magic inside your hook but 
just some TS setting you're better off to use the regular TYPO3 methods.

You could of course also just fire up a minimal extbase bootstrap, but 
the needed methods are also no public API and could also change - 
probably more likely then the configurationManager. If you prefer such a 
solution I can tell you how to do - but it's most likely more hassle to 
keep those things in sync with newer extbase versions then using  TYPO3 
methods.
