Change the behavior of variables with scripts

The Metadata plugin allows you to use scripts to change the behaviour of variables. Add IronPython scripts to the <ValueChangedScript> and <LovScript> elements in the plugin's configuration file. Finish the script with a call to the SetMetadataValue() (for single-value variables) or SetMetadataLoV() (for multi-value-variables).
