> No exception is thrown when doing a template merge with a non-existent key from the resource bundle. 
> eg. if the template has ${resource.NON_EXISTENT_KEY}, then we end up with the string {noformat}???NON_EXISTENT_KEY???{noformat}
> This has to do with the org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.ResourceTool.Key.toString implementation as shown below:
> {code:java}
>         public String toString()
>         {
>             if (this.key == null)
>             {
>                 return "";
>             }
>             if (!getExists())
>             {
>                 return "???"+this.key+"???";
>             }
>             return ResourceTool.this.render(this.rawValue, this.args);
>         }
> {code}
> Any reason why we can't force a FormatException when running in strict mode?
