Set watched folder via an expression #2

I'm deploying my flows on multiple NR instances. I have a startup (inject) flow that prepares global properties on deploying the flow. As flow developer I want to set the Watched directory based on an Expression and/or from a global property so that I do not need to each change node-red-contrib-watchdirectory node manually on each instance.

For example: $globalContext('workspace') & '\in'

Maybe the better way would be having a ingest node setting the parameters? (like the original watch)
