Feature Requests / status register or store

I'm not sure if this is possible or if it can be done by another method.
I was thinking that it would be good to have a feature that would allow VC to store a status of something so that it can then be used at a later time.
for example -
if I had a light turned on and that was recorded so that VC could use that information in it's logic without having to poll a device.
This would allow it to "remember" something that happened in the past and use that in it's logic.
if a weather report shows that it was raining/snowing/ hot etc - then that status is stored and can be used later.
Yes - I know that these sort of things could be done using complex scraping commands and other fancy things however for the non programmers out there like me - a nice simple way to use the logic feature of VC to provide different conditional responses would be good feature to have.
