Hmm, one of the things I really don't like with JXTG is that you
have to different expression languages. You never know which to
use and some things work only with one specific language.
And for me this comes near to FS :)
So, let's decide on one language that we think is the best, but
let's provide a hook so others can plugin their language if *they*
want to.
