Henri Biestro commented on JEXL-177:
------------------------------------
As a general rule, I'm very cautious about adding new constraints to the type
system and even more so if it requires modifying the syntax.
Adding 'templates' to the general syntax raises a lot of warnings.
I'm pretty sure templates can be used - and their support implemented in
"vanilla" JEXL - without the syntax modification.
