Allow ability to provide access to a widget variable in string passed refs in templates

[Dustin Machi]

nice subject eh? Stop whining.

as an example, store requiring widgets in a template:

<div>
   <div dojoType="dijit.someStoreWidget" store={$myStore:global}></div>
</div>

the store will get a string representing a global variable that points at the parent widgets myStore property.

Move all milestone 1.1 tickets to 1.2, except for reopened tickets and tickets opened after 1.1RC1 was released.

that's kind of confusing, esp the {$ syntax, if that's intentional. Does dojox.wires do what you want?

Oh, I fixed this in 1.6 (although with a different syntax), closing as dup of #12089.
