The current framework models variable and entity as different tables.

This means that variables aren't visible in the new entities dashboard, and it may also cause concurrency issues when SQLite is used as a backend - some updates to variables may occur while the EntityEngine is flushing records to the database, and the db may therefore be locked: the variable plugin and the entity engine are not synchronized.
