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

A token tool could easily do that today with the current spec though. The path is right there between `{` and `}`. The value is the `$value` property of the object that path points to. Any tool that deals with tokens will need to constantly parse strings between `{` and `}` all the time and look up values from those strings. And once it does, it can also get other things besides the `$value` property, like the `$description` property for showing in a tooltip or elsewhere. The tool already has all of the information it needs to be able to do all of that.
