Custom smart value variable used as a param to another function doesn't work

Duplicated ticket from the Code Barrel instance
Code Barrel ticket: https://codebarrel.atlassian.net/browse/AUT-2022

Issue Summary

We currently can't use functions such as {{ number(myCustomVariable) }}, since the custom variable won't be coerced when used as a param.

Steps to Reproduce

Expected Results

You should be able to use Automation Variables inside functions.

Actual Results

The Automation Variables aren't considered on functions. The Automation reads it as a string, like the myCustomVariable was the text, for example.

Workaround

Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
