> The OpenSocial 0.9 specification
> http://www.opensocial.org/Technical-Resources/opensocial-spec-v09/Gadgets-API-Specification.html#process
> has no explicit statement that says that hangman variables should be
> substituted in any kind of order or with precedence, but there are some
> gadgets that rely on this behaviour in iGoogle, for example their to do list
> gadget: http://www.google.com/ig/modules/todo.xml
> In the case of a gadget specification as follows:
> <Module>
> <ModulePrefs title="__UP_title__">
> <Locale>
> <msg name="title">Gadget title</msg>
> </Locale>
> </ModulePrefs>
> <UserPref name="title" default_value="__MSG_title__" />
> <Content />
> </Module>
> it seems reasonable that the content would be "Gadget title", rather than
> "__MSG_title__" as it is at the moment. The Substitutions class already has
> some vague comments relating to precedence that don't seem to have been
> applied to the actual substitutions.
> Since the spec already has an order in the way it is written (MSG -> UP ->
> MODULE -> BIDI) it would seem reasonable to replicate this ordering in both
> the Substitutions.Type enum and in the order that substitutions are added in
> VariableSubstituter.substitute(), and then to allow substitutions to use
> pre-existing substitutions when they are added.
