Currently, in GUI land, the workspace-model is receiving notification of variables in scope via the set_workspace slot. The variables are in string/stringlist format by this point, and are pretty much just input as is to the model.
If we want to do things like the ability of specifying additional columns to display (min, max, avg etc??), the lower level will have to provide additional strings that are always being sent up to the GUI with the values as strings, unless we change how it is currently doing it
So how hard would it be (or whats the best/safest way) of being able to provide the variables up to the GUI where a amount of manipulation can be done?
I think it will be required if we want to be able to edit/display the content of variables, change how the GUI displays (without having to modify the engine each time).
