Re: [community-group] Additional property -> "$reference" (for alias tokens) (#141)

This comes back to an area where I think the spec is [stringly typed](https://cocoacasts.com/the-danger-of-string-literals-and-stringly-typed-code) when it could be strongly typed. 

Currently, alias is determined from a leading and trailing `{}`. However, the definition could be either a token has a `$value` or an `$alias`. The syntax for alias tokens might then disallow a `$type` field because the type is from the aliased token.
