Closes #1302 While trying to answer #1302, I noticed that the compiler-api example did not work in (because `nameLookup` is actually at the prototype). This example has a jsfiddle that proves it is working. It does not provide an solve the exact problem of the reporter, but it answers the question.

+### Example for the compiler api.

+This example changes all lookups of properties are performed by a helper (`lookupLowerCase`) which looks for `test` if `{{Test}}` occurs in the template. This is just to illustrate how compiler behavior can be change.
+
+There is also [a jsfiddle with this code](https://jsfiddle.net/9D88g/85/) if you want to play around with it.

 ```javascript
 function MyCompiler() {

 }
-MyCompiler.prototype = Object.create(Handlebars.JavaScriptCompiler);
