Yep! This format looks cool! {@fieldname} - it's
visible and the {} looks better

No. Not at all

My reason for the changing the methods was to make it
much easier to read and to represent the field with a
much nicer syntax.

IMO your suggestion:

{@filedname}
{@fieldname[multi-line text]}

looks much better than:

[@fieldname]
[@fieldname(multi-line text)]


All agree to the {@fieldname} format or should we
stick to the old way?
