Can't use an array directly with <amp-mustache>

[jordimarimon]

Description

Sorry in advance if this issue already exist.

I have been searching around and I couldn't find anything about it.

I was playing around with AMP, to see the capabilities of it and I tried the following:

<amp-render layout="fixed-height" height="600" src="https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users">
  <template type="amp-mustache">
    {{#.}}
    <span>{{name}}</span>
    {{/.}}
  </template>
</amp-render>

It didn't work out, as I would expect.

It seems that the dot notation can't be used with amp-mustache?

Here is a codepen where one can see that mustache does support this notation:

Reproduction Steps

1. Open the AMP playground (https://playground.amp.dev/).

2. Add the following scripts:

<script async custom-element="amp-render" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-render-1.0.js"></script>
<script async custom-template="amp-mustache" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-mustache-0.2.js"></script>
<script async custom-element="amp-bind" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-bind-0.1.js"></script>

3. Add the following code in the body tag:

<amp-render layout="fixed-height" height="600" src="https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users">
  <template type="amp-mustache">
    {{#.}}
    <span>{{name}}</span>
    {{/.}}
  </template>
</amp-render>

consider using a structure like this (walking Wikidata JSON):

<amp-list
  class="m1"
  width="auto"
  height="50"
  layout="fixed-height"
  src="https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:EntityData/Q35120.json"
  items="entities.Q35120.sitelinks.jawiki"
  single-item="url"
>
<template type="amp-mustache"><p>{{url}}</p></template>
<div fallback><p>Missing site-url</p></div>
</amp-list>
