A scripting command to quickly check is there is a non-nil variable in entity, varspace or hashmaps

Description

I'd like to request a command to quickly check if entity, variable space or hashmap has a variable in its variable space, as a quicker single-command replacement for isNil{ENTITY getVariable STRING} and similar constructs which require a new scripting scope.

Suggested syntax:
BOOL = ENTITY isNil STRING
BOOL = HASHMAP isNil STRING
BOOL = NAMESPACE isNil STRING
