I'm investigating how to get variables to be treated as text-tokens (e.g., as in the Token module), and see that there is a "token" data type define in Rules Core.

I'm getting the feeling that the Rule module 'token' is not a token in the Token module sense. In fact, I'm not sure WTH it is.

So, WTH is it?? :-)

Could someone who is using the 'token' data type supply an example that does something useful (i.e., no 'foo' and 'bar' type examples).?

Much thanks!
