Yeah I understand where you're coming from.

Anyway here is a patch that fixes the simple parser to also accept the
${var} notation.
Also attach is a patch for our boards that takes it into account, plus
a few other minor fixes.

We probably gonna keep internally the CONFIG_HUSH_OLD_PARSER_COMPATIBLE
for a few months until we update (manually) all the boards.
