what part of the Variable code creates "Update all references"?

I'm looking at this code here, but not seeing anything in the editing logic or UI that seems related to this. Am I in the wrong place? I'm trying to figure out how to add this functionality to custom features too.

Good question - it's a bit of special UI that appears if you have UIHint.VARIABLE_NAME.3

Sneaky! Thanks, Anton. This is kind of a bummer, because it means I can only update the names of variables that are driven by a single string parameter, right? I'd love to get my Manufacturing Variables tool working this way when someone edits the prepended text. Am I right that I can't do that, because the string param only defines part of the variable name?
