Generally overriding Lisp values would be a great feature, but I feel
that this
implementation seems to promise that you can set any lisp value there.
This would
lead to a large overhead, because every command would have to locally
parse
before execution. Also there would be uncertainties because many
commands
act on several items etc.
I am not yet convinced that this is useful enough - so for the
time being I will stick with the LOGGING property.
Thanks for all comments!
