I support the

move [my variable v] to X: () Y: () ::variables

and why is that?

Although I'd totally love this feature, Scratch is supposed to be simple and easy. I'm sure that this is pretty easy to understand, but I'm just not sure that the scratch team would implement a block just to position a variable.

Full support!

Yes, but they also have some blocks that are too complicated for some people to understand right now. For example, this block:

 ([e^ v] of (9)) 

I think a variable postion block would be easy to understand. Positioning variables be would very helpful for games with boss fights you can move around in, to show which variable is your health or other and which variable is the opponents health or other.

Just drag it, and then right click for the kind

That's not a workaround. What you're saying is that instead of being able to do this:

if <(moveID) = (1)> then 
move [display v] to x:(0) y:(100) :: variables
display [display v] as [normal readout v] :: variables
else
move [display v] to x:(0) y:(0) :: variables
display [display v] as [large readout v] :: variables
end

Anyone playing the game has to manually see inside, drag the variable themself, and right click to change the readout for the game to show the variable in its intended position and readout.

That being said, major support, but all of the following should become blocks:

send [my variable v] to x:() y:() :: variables

glide [my variable v] to x:() y:() for:() secs :: variables

send [my variable v] to [sprite v] :: variables

glide [my variable v] to [sprite v] :: variables

change x of [my variable v] by () :: variables

change y of [my variable v] by () :: variables

set readout of [my variable v] to [large readout v] :: variables

(x of [my variable v] :: variables reporter)
(y of [my variable v] :: variables reporter)

one might make this as extention

I like the idea of a go to(x,y) block for a variable especially if you want to put a health bar over a boss or enemy or something like that
