Description

As variables are being deprecated in favor of parameters, it would be very beneficial to provide something to ease the migration. Letting users create parameters for all existing variables would be a huge efficiency gain.

Possibly add a button on the Variables dialog that would just create parameters named the same as the variables with the value and assign them to the current parameter context.
