I have thought of using qualified variables, but i think that won't work
inside a tempalte, right? Or can I do <%= class::variable %> ?

And I guess that if I am using dynamic variables, once I include the it
will be evaluated only once, right?

Ok, sorry for the confusion.

I would have thought "$common_variables::x" would have worked to reference
something in a parent, but it does not.

Perhaps someone else can share a workaround as I'm not too familiar with
scoping in this case.

I know you can do variables at top scope or through your external nodes
classifier, but that is not ideal.

IIRC you also need to 'include' the class within the define, then qualified variables (like ${class::variable}) should work. YMMV, these kinds of things have always caused enough issues to drive me crazy, but definitely possible.
