Unfortunately, directly rewriting memory is the only way to do this, and it would get VERY ugly. You would probably not only want to add/modify the variable in the master environment, but also in any child environments that may exist between you and the master. Some or all of the environments may not even have enough space left to add anything new to them. Even indirectly running the SET command after you exit won't work correctly if you're not a direct descendent of the master.
