That's certainly some bug around constructing the error message. But
the type of the error (undefined var) is certainly still right.

It's supported, and assuming you have a `public Date getCreated()` in
a public Enum subclass, something like ${someEnum.created?datetime}
should work. I suspect that somewhere that Enum was converted to
java.lang.String. Otherwise the reported type wouldn't be
SimpleScalar. (Actually, wrapped Enum-s are FTL string-s, however they
are StringModel-s, not SimpleScalar-s, and StringModel-s can have
subvariables.)
