Re-use of environment variable in API definition

This would be extremely useful! I use CocoaRestClient to test requests to an API. Every request requires an Authorization header containing a token (which expires). I've saved every request to the Request Drawer but every time I want to test a different one I'm having to copy and paste a new token into the request's Headers. If I could just update an environment variable with the new token it would save a lot of time.

I have exactly the same problem, as I also (almost exclusively) use CocoaRestClient for testing API requests, which require to update the token inside XML data for every saved request.

Something like this would be awesome to use inside param values: <auth>@var1@</auth> or <auth>$var1$</auth> or even <auth>$(50+50)</auth>
