Auto-Populate Value Inspector With Variables in Current Macro

Questions & Suggestions
9

I've been working on this off and on today and I'm kind of stumped. Have you made any progress?

EDIT: This is what I came up with BUT... because of what I believe are accessibility issues (as documented here) there is a significant delay (about 6 seconds) between clicking the add button and clicking variable...adding ignoring application responses does not make a difference unfortunately.
