Yes, this was a pretty brilliant move of specsmanship here. I had
feared that we would have to pull out a bigger shotgun here.

Enthusiastically endorse two big design choices reflected here:
- The use of Fragments to represent the string content that gets
interleaved with embedded expressions

appear in a program after a '.' character
Nice work, feels quite manageable and doesn't blow up the grammar!

Dear experts:
A new, updated spec covering JEP 430 (String Templates) is now
available at:
https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/jep430/latest
This is a substantial rewrite: it now covers more fully how templates
are tokenized, how to deal with ambiguities, and how text block
templates are dealt with.
Comments welcomed!
