Description

If $foo is a java.lang.String and a template tried to do $foo.bar, one can use an InvalidReferenceEventHandler to resolve bar into a value. However, if the template tries to do $foo.bar.baz, the last part cannot be resolved using an InvalidReferenceEventHandler. I'll attach an example test case.
