Cool,
Would love to see alternative ways that I don't know about or haven't used.
OK, say we have this
#trim(evaluate("query.#ColumnName#"))#
Or
#Evaluate("query.column#request.stAvailableLanguages[i]["language"]#")
Cheers

No, every case I've seen can be coded without evaluate().

Show me a case where you think you really need it.

I think a lot of code relies on evaluate() - pre-MX you couldn't just
mess with scopes as if they were structs so you needed it back then.

avoid evaluate(). I would like to see it deprecated but it isn't my
choice to make.
