Add support for operator overloading (e. g. string concatenation using +)

[eatonphil]

Trying to concatenate strings {{var+"@"}} returns 0. Is there a way around this?

So the answer to this is to use stringformat {{var|stringformat:"%s@"}}. However, this behavior is unexpected. Is it intentional?

It is intentional by now, but could need some improvements, I agree.

{{ "a"|add:"b"|add:"c" }}, i think that's enough.

Hi @flosch , would it be possible to add the "~" operator to concatenate strings like jinja2 https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/2.11.x/templates/#other-operators ? That would be very helpful! Thank you
