Any tips for naming dimensions as you go?

I love that Fusion 360 is parametric. I find myself using user variables for most everything so I can go back and change dimensions. However, I find my current process a little tedious.
- I have to think ahead and make two user variables with names and values
- When making something like a rectangle, use those variable names
- Double check that the dimensions are actually tied to the variables (prefixed with fx:) and not just copies of the values
Is there a better way to name as you go? What I'd like to do is enter something like: MyWidth=5 instead of 5 in the text editor field and have it automatically make the user variable and bind the dimension to it.
Thanks!
