I see that the idea of extending the `template` node so that it also supports environment variables has been raised in the past:

- [Subflow - template node - subflow properties - #5 by knolleary](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/subflow-template-node-subflow-properties/23658/5)

That would also be a good solution for this issue.
