 * @fileoverview This is a simple template engine inspired by JsTemplates
 * optimized for i18n.
 *
 * It currently supports two handlers:
 *
 *   * i18n-content which sets the textContent of the element
 *
 *     <span i18n-content="myContent"></span>
 *     i18nTemplate.process(element, {'myContent': 'Content'});
 *
 *   * i18n-values is a list of attribute-value or property-value pairs.
 *     Properties are prefixed with a '.' and can contain nested properties.
 *
 *     <span i18n-values="title:myTitle;.style.fontSize:fontSize"></span>
 *     i18nTemplate.process(element, {
 *       'myTitle': 'Title',
 *       'fontSize': '13px'
 *     });
