Could you be more specific? What do you have in mind when you say "fully
dynamic?" That admins (or even users) could define their own @ variables
on the fly? That's a little more dynamic than I've been hoping for.
(Although, truth to tell, I haven't really considered the
possibilities...)

We live and die by the @sys variable. More functionality, if well
designed, could be a really good thing. The one variable is too
limiting, I'm afraid.
