suppose i want to report a variable state in NodeJS and/or JavaScript, for example:

console.log("myvar['"+property+"'] = "+myvar[property]); […] could that last step be implemanted in TextMate ?

Given your steps I would suggest creating a new snippet that is:

"+${TM_SELECTED_TEXT}+"

Then set the scope selector to:

source.js string & dyn.selection

And set the key equivalent to ".

This way, when you have a selection in a (JavaScript) string and press " then it wraps it in the proper string append syntax. In all other contexts, the double-quote key works as default.
