Mustache Compatibilty
---------------------
Handlebars deviates from the Mustache spec in a few key ways:
- Alternative delimeters are not supported
- Recrusive value lookup is not enabled by default. The compile time `compat` flag must be set to enable this functionality. Users should note that there is a performance cost for enabling this flag. The exact cost varies by template, but it's recommended that performance sensitive operations should avoid this mode and instead opt for explicit path references.
- The optional Mustache-style lambdas are not supported. Instead Handlebars provides it's own lambda resolution that follows the behaviors of helpers.
