Not according to the FM documentation I read - FM does not throw an
exception when an IF conditional contains anytyhing other than a boolean
reference.

So I assume Jonathan's suggested code modifications might change
Velocity behaviour, but not as I described. 

Other kind readers, please do not conclude that Jonathan's post answered
my question. He is simply getting in the way of me trying to learn more
about how Velocity works.

Indeed, no thank you. And I certainly do not share Jonathan's delusion.

As is so often the case, Jonathan is incorrect. 

FM does -not- work the way I want. And even if it did, that would not be
enough to justify switching thousands of lines of code that use
Velocity.
