Dániel Dékány commented on FREEMARKER-183:
------------------------------------------
I will dig into the some of the pending issues, like this, in December. For
now, I don't remember the implementation details. But what I think we can do is
adding a new interface, that tells that if you try to call the value (the
{{TemplateModel}}), then instead of failing with {{For "...(...)" callee:
Expected a method or function, but this has evaluated to [...]}}, it just
returns the value that you attempted to call. Something like
{{ComponentMethodTempalteModel}}, which is just a marker interface that extends
{{TemplateModel}}. So, to answer your question, it absolutely horrible, but not
_too_ horrible... After all, the template authors just experience that for some
reason it works, and almost nobody sees the horrors behind.
