        Some intended use cases:

           already modified it from the original source code form.  For example,
           placeholders will have been translated into namemapper calls.  If you
           need to work with the original source, see rawExpr.        
         - exprType is the name of the directive, 'psp', or 'placeholder'. All
           lowercase.  @@TR: These will eventually be replaced with a set of
           constants.
         - rawExpr is the original source string that Cheetah parsed.  This
           might be None in some cases.
         - startPos is the character position in the source string/file
           where the parser started parsing the current expression.

        @@TR: I realize this use of the term 'expression' is a bit wonky as many
