I know ;-). But sometimes it would be useful to be able to set a
choice or a boolean key through a tl or bool variable and not
explicitly. 

Btw: This doesn't work either

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{expl3}
\begin{document}
\ExplSyntaxOn

\def\testvalueA{A}

\keys_define:nn {test}
 {
  type    .choices:nn = { A , B , \testvalueA }
   {
    blub
   },
 }

\keys_set:nn { test } {type=\testvalueA}

\ExplSyntaxOff
%Error
\end{document}
