PLEASE VOTE: Workflow Variables (Plugins No Longer Sufficient)

Idea

Flow State Variables: A workflow action that you can add dynamic text, number(s), or option(s) to, then reference in any number of following workflow actions.

Shoutout to @keith for his incredible flow state actions that previously solved this issue.

After thorough testing, we have found that currently, with all plugin-based solutions, there is an up to 10 sec “initialization” of the plugin before flow states will run. This also uses excessive WUs and capacity.

Setting variables is a fundamental code logic concept, and Bubble needs a 1:1 for this to continue to offer parity with regular software development (especially in the age of AI coding).

Hey @aj11 - have you experimented with returning vales from custom events? Depending on how many vaiables you need and their flexibility this might be a good option in some cases

That might be a great short term workaround, we will try it.
