Improved input for equations and variables?

I use a lot of variables in my designs and as a result a lot of the geometry is based off of parameters like lengths and angles. For a simple design this isn't a problem with the existing OnShape input window but it's not uncommon to use angled planes and have to include a little bit of trig for dimensions. For secondary planes it outright becomes a headache to write the equations so I write them in a text editor instead.
Are there any extensions or ways to improve input in OnShape?

It's a common problem which needs to be solved.
