So I've proposed the idea then:
1) node which could have dinamic variables list provides that list
  (template) as a variable with a special type to UI;
2) UI calls that node for init;
3) node changes own config structure as it needs;
4) UI rechecks node's config structure.

I think it must be very simple. Tell me if I was dumb in that.

    With best wishes.
