In 1.3, i've been on something of a push to simplify the syntax and
readability of how tools are used in templates. The idea is to make
an elegant, simple VTL interface for these tools, even if it looks odd
from a java perspective. Given the choice between:
$context.context and $context.this
i consider the latter to be the most elegant and self-explanatory.
