[Feature request] Per-panel variables

Due to the limitation of not being able to utilize template variables with alerting, it would be very useful to allow for variable declaration within individual panels. This would allow an admin to duplicate a set of panels which reference a $hostname, for instance, and change the variable assignment once within each individual panel to automatically change title, queries, etc. This would be preferable to a hack to allow template variables to work with alerting since it prevents the possibility of a user from removing hosts from a template selection and thus disabling alerting.
