By the way, there is still a small race. If the callback variable is 
externally modified between var_(Create)Get and var_AddCallback, the value is 
typically lost. The previous value will be used until the variable is reset 
yet another time. This can happen because the filters are already attached to 
the object tree when they are initialized (otherwise variables and 
configuration items inheritance would not work).
