If the handler is in the same script as the constant, why would you? A constant is for representing values that do not change after compile. Variables are for values that change during runtime. I cannot imagine a use case for putting a constant name into a variable, although I have thought about the need to get the constant from another script, until I remembered it's just easier to set a custom property.
In fact (I think I've said so before) custom props are a great way to mimic scoped variables, and even constants. For instance all my datagrids have a property tablename containing the name of the table I query to populate it.
