           Summary: No documentation on rules used for property lookup
           Product: Velocity

          Platform: All
               URL: http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/user-
                    guide.html#Properties

Per mailing list discussion on rules used for property reference lookup, the 
documentation should indicate or have examples that describe the rules used 
when attempting to retreive the value of the property. 

Example (per Geir):

 $thing.foo

1) try getFoo()
2) try getfoo() [for wacky people...]
3) try get("foo")
4) try isFoo()
