Description

Hello,
I wanted to propose here the possibility of extending the functionality of My blocks and bringing it closer to the usual function we have in programming. So adding the ability to return values, I think it could significantly simplify the structure of blocks in many situations.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing My blocks implementation and the code that executes custom blocks. Read related tests or examples to understand current behavior, then define how a returned value should be represented, produced, and consumed. Done should include an agreed behavior and coverage for the supported return-value cases.
