 There are a few Mustache behaviors that Handlebars does not implement.
 - Handlebars deviates from Mustache slightly in that it does not perform recursive lookup 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.
-- Alternative delimeters are not supported.
