It would be convenient for certain properties of zowe.yaml to contain symbols that are resolved.
Imagine you want to state the hostname of something.
If we had

zowe:
  externalDomains:
    - ${{ zoslib.getSymbol('&hostname') }}

I think that would be great.
It looks like the call that is needed for symbol resolution is https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.5.0?topic=hsp-asasymbm-asasymbf-substitute-text-symbols so it would be a good addition to the codebase and would be reused for other things (dataset api needs symbol resolution on volser)

This code was just merged to configmgr, so hopefully the capability will be in 2.9.
at that point, it'll just be a matter of leveraging it in the yamls.
the function is zos.resolveSymbol('&thing')
