Since you can't access it directly in a template, that leaves only the
former option ("best practice" is not to attempt the impossible). Pass
it in. If you find yourself needing a particular setting regularly, you
could set up a context processor to populate context with the value(s)
you require, just like the media context processor does
(http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/api/#django-core-context-processors-media
)
