I don't like the list because it's not possible to see the settings of a
variable without scrolling left/right. With a property grid at the right
it's not possible to see the contents of more than one variable, but I
think it's possible to see all the variable properties. 
The list wastes valuable screenspace too (just open the 'Attribute'
template). 

btw. A property grid could default to  the variable at the caret 
position, I think that'll be helpful.
