I'd love to see something like this because then I'd be able to return
strings which drew information from elsewhere - IE the image_path() method.
Consider the 'url' for a background - it's going to reference an image in
your public dir.
Unfortunately we might develop our apps with no root prefix, so the urls
look like backgrounds/something.gif
and then we deploy our apps to production with a prefix, so the urls look
like prefix/backgrounds/something.gif
We get around this using a variable which we store the prefix in, but it
means we have to remember to patch the sass file before we go to production.
Claiming we should develop our apps with a prefix is all very well, but we
like the ability to move things around, even in production, and this
hardcoded image path is the only thing that gives us problems.
