2.0 rc-7 toString() expression not works inside mustache {{}}

Hello ! I am very new Vue. Sorry if I miss something in documentation.

I have a very simple template witch is not working as expected. I do not know exactly context of this.toString() but it is not vm.$data.

<div id="app">
    {{ this.toString() }} <!--should return $data.toString() but not works -->
</div>

the template has not this context.

It actually has… so it can access methods, $options etc. $data is on this, so the docs were correct. http://jsfiddle.net/r9kojstk/

Since this is an object (that didn’t override toString), using this.toString() simply gives [object Object], which is expected.

the template has not this context.

It simply has access to all properties and methods of the vm as variables. $data is one of those properties.

<div id="app">
    {{ $data.toString() }} // also works without .toString()
</div>

to get a nice format, simply use a <pre> element:

<div id="app">
    <pre>{{ $data }}</pre>
</div>
