Does the render tag support with/as and for/as?

Reviewing documentation for the render tag, it appears to have a few parameters that are not supported by LiquidJS.

The with parameter

A single object can be passed to a snippet by using the with and as parameters:

{% assign featured_product = all_products['product_handle'] %}
{% render 'product' with featured_product as product %}

In the example above, the product variable in the snippet will hold the value of featured_product in the parent template.

In my testing, it appears that while LiquidJS supports with, it does not support reassignment using as.

The for parameter

A snippet can be rendered once for each value of an enumerable object by using the for and as parameters:

{% assign variants = product.variants %}
{% render 'variant' for variants as variant %}

In the example above, the snippet will be rendered once for each variant of the product, and the variant variable will hold a product variant object within the snippet.

When using the for parameter, the forloop object is accessible within the snippet.

In my testing, it appears that LiquidJS does not support the for and as parameters.

Looking at the code for render in shopify/liquid, it appears these are core Liquid features (i.e., they are not Shopify specific), but I could be wrong.

What is the status of these parameters?
