how to use Request and other 'special objects'?

Looking for some doc on using Request and other
'context tools' - couldn't find on site.  

First question - can I pass anything other than
Strings as arguments to my globally-defined template
functions?  I'm getting the following error when
trying to pass '$Request' as an argument:

============
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException:  Cannot
invoke toString() on an undefined variable.
============

Thanks.
