     * or "%{date}"
     *
     * This syntax is somewhat similar to the one found in the Eclipse editor or textmate.
     *
     * There are certain common placeholders (macros), which get assigned a
     * default initialValue, If the second parameter does not a given value.
     * For all others the initial value is the name of the placeholder.
     *
     * Placeholder names may only consist of a-zA-Z0-9_
     * 
     * @since 4.5
     * if a placeholder is a mirror, the place holder name may contain additional information
     * ${something/regexp/replacement/} takes the value of the placeholder something and replaces the match with the replacement before inserting the mirrored value
     * ${something/regexp/replacement/g} like above, but for all occurences
     *                          The syntax of the regexp and the replacement are the ones from kateparts regexp search/replace
     * ${something/regexp/replacement/i} like above, but case insensitive
     *                          The syntax of the regexp and the replacement are the ones from kateparts regexp search/replace
     * Possible flags: g and i. Those flags can be combined too
     * If a literal / should appear in the regexp, it has to be escaped \/,
     * literal \ has to be escaped too 
     * 
     * If you have mirrored ranges and want another occurence than the first one as the master
     * you can add @ directly after the placeholder name.
     * 
     * Common placeholders and values are
     *
     * - index: "i"
     * - loginname: The current users's loginname
     * - fullname: The current user's first and last name retrieved from kabc
     * - email: The current user's primary email address retrieved from kabc
     * - date: current date
     * - time: current time
     * - year: current year
     * - month: current month
     * - day: current day
     * - hostname: hostname of the computer
     * - selection: The implementation should set this to the selected text, if any
     * - cursor: at this position the cursor will be after editing of the
     *   template has finished, this has to be taken care of by the actual
     *   implementation. The placeholder gets a value of "|" assigned.
     *
     * If a macro is started with a % (persent sign) like "%{date}" it isn't added
     * to the list editable strings ( for example TAB key navigation) if a value
     * differing from the macro name is found.
     *
     * If the editor supports some kind of smart indentation, the inserted code
     * should be layouted by the indenter.
