As for variable handling, I think the solution is to ensure that on the

foo=1
bar=2

of the same variable..

Yes, that sounds like the way to go. My previous message implied that the var string should only contain unique variable names, but I see that that would be needlessly complicated.

This is an interesting approach; I like it better than the property block. I'm sure we will think of other useful applications for cumulative properties, too (conversely, there'll probably be some side effect that will turn around and bite us at some point, though I can't think what it would be).
