if you use the VelocityViewServlet (part of VelocityTools), you could
set some data

No, I did not try to #parse. Just tried to set the variable value in a
macro. haven't needed to #parse anything yet - I guess I could look
into it.

I'm not sure about the performance impact of this, but I just create a
template which has my common variables for a particular area of my app
and #parse it from wherever I need it.

Should I be able to do the following in a template:

I personally set all of my global variables whenever I touch Velocity,
and I have at least 100 of them, some defined with some pretty
complicated routines. It doesn't seem to impact response times on the
web application, and it saves a lot of programming and debugging time
