My specific sensor (seems to be the same used by TH3D - https://www.th3dstudio.com/product/ezout-v2-filament-sensor-only-replacement-spare/) goes HIGH when filament is present and LOW when absent.

I wired it the most straightforward way (Vcc-Vcc, GND-GND, signal-GPIO; no resistors, etc).

The only way I can read correct GPIO values is when I set up the IO with pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_DOWN option. However, the plugin code has pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP hardwired. It probably should be parameter driven, perhaps derived from the existing 'switch' parameter?

It looks like this exists now. should this issue be closed?

Not really, it still has PUD_UP hardwired:

GPIO.setup(self.pin, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)

do you see something else somewhere?
