Summary

Description:
For teams working collaboratively, it would be highly beneficial to have global environment variables that are synchronized across all team members. Each individual should still have the ability to override these variables via the Secrets tab.

Expected Behavior:

Global environment variables should be synced across all team members.
Individual users should be able to override these global variables in their personal Secrets tab.
If a user does not override a variable, the global value should be used.

Would this feature be feasible to implement?

Why should this be worked on?

Why is this useful?
Teams often work with shared API endpoints, authentication tokens, or configurations that should be consistent for everyone globally and not specifically bound to an environment.
