There's nothing really wrong with using the same database to store Client variables along with the rest of the tables for that application, except that it limits how much you can secure the database, to some degree - you can't limit the user rights to a specific set of stored procedures, for example. If you're not doing that anyway, I don't think it makes a bit of difference.
