 * Add support for interpolation in at-rule names. See [the
   proposal][at-rule-interpolation] for details.
 
+* Add paths from the `SASS_PATH` environment variable to the load paths in the
+  command-line interface, Dart API, and JS API. These load paths are checked
+  just after the load paths explicitly passed by the user.
