This is a bump to an incidental request made previously

Perhaps interesting for debug or testing.
Also:
- %MIDI_NOTE% and similar
%{GLOBAL}%
%SYS_TIME% would be nice to have (and it would be nice to have date/time in shaders)
%LAST_TWEET%
%SCENE_PATH% including the folders in which the current scene exists
%SCENE_TIME% the number of seconds the scene has been active
Not sure how much I'd use these in the live output though - but I can see it might be useful for the audience to give feedback.

Yes, definitely could be useful.
