Uwe Schindler commented on SOLR-5707:
-------------------------------------

See: 
http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST-ARCH/ECMA-262,%203rd%20edition,%20December%201999.pdf

This standard specifies one departure from the grammar given in the Unicode 
standard: The dollar sign ($) and the underscore (_) are permitted anywhere in 
an identifier. The dollar sign is intended for use only in mechanically 
generated code.

So this is in my opinion a bug, that the ANTLR parser does not accept $ in 
variables. Maybe [~rcmuir] knows the background about this limitation.
