 I could comment it in the sense how it's done for `GRASS_ADDON_PATH`
 variable (menu: File->Launch script). If the script is not in the path,
 the GUI updates loaded environmental variable
 (`os.environ['GRASS_ADDON_PATH']=`) and updates `.grass7/basrc` (or
 `GRASS7\env.bat` on MS Windows). This file is loaded by the initialization
 script. Drawback: if you quit GUI and launch it again, the variable is
 lost -  you need to restart GRASS (launch initialization script which
 loads `bashrc` or `env.bat` file).
