@zjffdu Great idea on paragraph-level properties! There are so many
possible uses for this feature like ones you explained below.
For interpolation I think there should be a way to do it globally too, to
match Jupyter's behavior. And it could be also optionally enabled at paragraph
level like you're describing. Not sure I understood on overhead though - since
it will be only applied to code in the paragraphs.

allowing users to start using the new feature in a safe and controlled way.
I agree, thank you.
@zjffdu, what @sanjaydasgupta is saying allows to switch this feature off
at global level, so we can maintain compatibility with previous version, and
only switch interpolation when users choose to enable it. It looks like a good
idea to me. We could add enabling this at paragraph-level as part of another PR
later, when this new facility to have paragraph-level properties will be
available. What do you guys think?
