If I want to change the value of a global parameter that is set somewhere (unknown), where would I go to find out where it is set?

In someone's code, you mean? grep for "parameter::set_global_value" and look for the package key, just as you would today for pseudo-semi-not-really global parameters that are set using "parameter::set_from_package_key".

I mean as a sitewide admin, nondeveloper, who wants to see or change the global parameter value.

They would show up in the site wide UI Don has mentioned but would also be visible inside a package instance (perhaps with a link to the page where you can edit in the SW area).
