[Templates] differentiating hash entries / methods with same name

[Andrew Strader]

Generally no. TT will see [% obj %] as an instance of the pertinent
class, not as a hash reference.

You could make [% obj.item('foo') %] work simply by defining a method
called "item" for it.

Does obj.item('foo') work?
