Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/5713

I did not found any mentions of this earlier, so here is my suggestion.

Sometimes you need to set rules involving current working dir.
E.g. via CLI you can do:

firejail --whitelist="${PWD}" ...

But I don't see any way to do it via config file.
I think the easiest solution will be introducing CWD/PWD variable for configs.

Relates to:

#4090
