Require that it exists.
One example is that I have UserTags that rely on certain catalog
variables. It would be nice to require that those variables at least exist
before starting the given catalog.
Another example is using catalog variables in queries. I often say things
like [query sql=|SELECT * FROM __DB__.items|]. __DB__ has a different
value based on what host the catalog is running on. DB is set to a test
database if the host is the devo host. If DB is not defined certain pages
will fail. It would be good to at least require that DB is defined.
