> The simple syntax can maybe be improved a bit when its a function such as env or sysenv or other functions vs OGNL method calls on body, headers etc that uses dot style.
> Eg 
> {code}
> ${sysenv.FOO}
> {code}
> vs
> {code}
> ${env:FOO}
> {code}
> It may feel a bit more natural to use colon in these situations, and dot when using
> {code}
> ${body.someGetter}
> {code}
> And to refer to a header you can use both
> {code}
> ${header.foo}
> {code}
> {code}
> ${header:foo}
> {code}
