If I understand Strongarm's integration with Features correctly, a features module on a production site must be reverted any time changes are pushed. This seems to be because although Strongarm stores variable values in code, Drupal still only reads values them out of the variables table when calling variable_get(). This is conceptually different from the way a View or other CTools exportable can live "in code."

To improve the workflow of deployment, would it be possible for the Features update process to also add an update function to the exported module that reverts the changed variables?
