That's pretty much what I was doing with {{#data-value:data.color}}. Turning
that into {{#data-value:{{{data}}}|color}} would actually be fine, though a bit
ugly. Perhaps it would even be nice to turn it around:
{{#property:color|{{{data}}}}}.
However, I'd still like to support the plain template parameter syntax with
pseudo-parameters, e.g. {{{data.color}}} for retrieving the flat wikitext value
of the property.
Do you think that's ok? Or does it introduce complications with respect to Lua,
etc?
