Konstantin, I didn't intend to promote the use of that modules. I
think the issue Nicola raised is more general than that: referencing
sitemap vars with URLs and supporting different means to obtain the
value.

With that (actually, even with the input modules) you could have a
component that takes all the vars you would like to set and refer to
them afterwards. For example take the StringConstantModule: configure
it to return a "@myskin" and refer to it whenever you need it.  Why
not extend it so that it can return different constants? That way you
will get global constants.

Possible, I'd say.
