an ability to add inputs into Variables might be a good idea.

variables with input and output is literally just functions/custom blocks, which is what reporters are used for.

They will work like a custom block but with a return.
Mockup:

Well, so big, anyways,
It can be in an extension, so younger scratchers won't be confused. It should have two types:

Boolean return

In this the block shape will be like boolean reporters

String/Number return

This will be like the picture

Using “Stop {this script v}” block will skip to return

stop [this script v]

Ok guys I think it would likely look smth like this;

define example block 1 with input (input 1)
. . .
return (1234) ::cap custom

//would become
(example block 1 with input ())

Now if you returned a boolean, it would become a boolean block:

Ok guys I think it would likely look smth like this;

define example block 1 with input (input 1)
. . .
return <(my variable) = (10)> ::cap custom

<example block 1 with input ()>

Now I see no reason why this is not a very useful tool. In my opinion it might be one of the best things scratch could add.
