[QGIS-Developer] Typed Variables?

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi Andreas,

If required, the variable UI (and serialization to ini/project/...) 
could made typable.

But for this use case, add a variable with 0 (or 1) and use

CASE WHEN @debug THEN
   'We are debugging'
ELSE
   'No debug'
END

That should just work
