Research direction

Start by tracing how Sherlock handles unknown variables while importing resources, focusing on values declared in *** Variables *** and variables supplied from the CLI. Determine where a global override option would fit and define completion around successfully importing resources containing ${PLAYWRIGHT_TIMEOUT} without manually declaring it.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

In this situation:

Library  Browser  ${PLAYWRIGHT_TIMEOUT}

we need to define somewhere (*** Variables *** or from cli) variable PLAYWRIGHT_TIMEOUT. It would be also useful to have some kind of global flag that would make Sherlock try to override all unknown variables - in effort of trying to import resources.
