No, it was a patch specifically for torque which removed use of
properties with hyphens. This is a problem with expressions in Jexl
generally. I am very much leaning toward using an alternative syntax for
expressions and that would be the use of OGNL which just works.

I'm looking at altering the expression factory used by Maven to leave
Jexl expressions there because everyone uses them now and optionally add
OGNL expressions which are far more robust. I use OGNL expressions
exclusively with my Werkflow Jelly and it works fantastically.
