Change variable values after mergeContext / importDerived?

Now, I might be dreaming, but I'd really love this to be possible.
Is there a way to Change variable values after using
I figured since variables are added to the context, these should come along. Would there at least be a way to get all variables in a context, so you don't have to look for them by name using

mergeContext or importDerived to import geometry from another PS? This would allow several morphologically different instances of the same geometry.

Though, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "several morphologically different instances of the same geometry". Are you looking to externally change the values of variables before the Part Studio is rebuilt, to get different geometry? If so, you'll have to wait for configurations for that.
I sense a pattern here, my last three / four questions on this forum have all been answered with "be patient, configurations are coming your way soon". Which is exactly what I'll do, I'm really glad you guys are working on it.
