Can you talk more about your though??
I'm thinking about PERSISTENT VARIABLES and maybe they can be the redesign of our hard coded "reloptions", with the ability to provide users to create their own customized. If we think more carefully we already have some persistent variables with specialized context: reloptions (hardcoded), security labels (local and shared catalog) and comments (local and shared catalog). I was clear enough?
