title: Variables containing "." character in Handlebars?
body: <p>I am using Handlebars templates. If I want to insert a variable in an hbs file, I add it as <code>{{var_name}}</code>.</p>
  
  <p>The issue is, I have a large object with its keys taking formats similar to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
      "stats.name":"John",
      "stats.performance.day":123,
      "stats.performance.month":4567,
      "company":"My LLC"
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I try to add these to the Handlebars file as <code>{{company}}, {{stats.name}}, {{stats.performance.day}}, {{stats.performance.month}}</code> then only the <code>{{company}}</code> will be displayed. All other values come out blank, I assume because "." is a special character in Handlebars.</p>
  
  <p>My question is, is there a way to override this, or do I actually need to iterate through this object and change every "." to a "_" or something before passing it to Handlebars to make it work?</p>
