But what do you think about using real python lists with a conventional
names or with a "magic" comment (or even a cell magic?) from which the
values are extracted. This would not require building any custom GUI.
The template notebook will have a cell like this:
ipyparams_datafile = [...]
that is replaced in the executed notebook by a cell like this:
datafile = ".."
It may be a little hackish but it is extremely simple and would already be
a huge improvement over the current situation.
