But what kind of object are you expectng to be returned here (other than
a String)?
A similar question applies to the replaceObject() method which appears
to have very odd semantics as you can't rely on the return value being
of any specific type. What Objects are you expecting to work with?

I plan to use the class in [configuration] for variable substitution. A
variable can represent a configuration property, which can have an
arbitrary type.
