JEXL and ant like properties
I know this is an issue for Maven and Jelly, specifically
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-87
I've got a solution that allows JEXL to handle the following:
JexlContext jc = JexlHelper.createContext();
String value = "Stinky Cheese";
jc.getVars().put("maven.bob.food", value);
// ant property maven.bob.food executing the length method
assertExpression(jc, "maven.bob.food.length()", new
Integer(value.length()));
// using empty on maven.bob.food
assertExpression(jc, "empty(maven.bob.food)", Boolean.FALSE);
assertExpression(jc, "size(maven.bob.food)", new
Integer(value.length()));
assertExpression(jc, "maven.bob.food + ' is good'", value + " is good");

While adding to an RC is usually bad form we've been guilty of a lot recently, I
think this is worthwhile.
To some extent, most people think this to be a bug in how it worked previously
rather than a missing feature.
Since all the tests pass, and the RC was so recent anyway, I say go for it.

And it also handles the following:
jc.getVars().put("x.a", Boolean.TRUE );
jc.getVars().put("x.b", Boolean.FALSE );
assertExpression(jc, "x.a", Boolean.TRUE);
assertExpression(jc, "!x.a", Boolean.FALSE);
assertExpression(jc, "!x.b", Boolean.TRUE);
The question I meant to ask before was is this something people would
like for the 1.0 release?
All the JEXL tests work with this new feature, and it could make
Jelly's life a little easier as well.
