Is there a token for contribution type?
I thought I had tried the obvious but must have had a typo.  It is there but it isn't listed in the list of tokens. It's {contribution.financial_type}.  Should it be listed?  If so, it looks like a bug.

It didn't take much make it show.  In my test version I hacked SelectValues.php and added financial type to the contribution token array.  If I looked at the latest versions of that file it doesn't seem to be there either.
