how to add a global variable to a dashboard

$

I have a standard dashboard that I want to reuse 20 - 50 times for different applications (there will be some added customization per application). The search's/macros are standardized and I pass in the name of the application as a parameter. I want to be able to set a variable (application name) that these searches etc will then get passed and display the required charts/tables. This is to simplify the creation of the dashboards for each application. We can just copy the base dashboard, edit the global variable, add a couple of application specific charts/tables to the bottom of the dashboard and Bobs your auntie. I could use a drop-down and hide it but this seems a little inelegant, any other options? FYI I'm using advanced XML and Sideview.
