Hmm, so the deal with the %{foo:...} vs %{foo ...} syntax was that the former can accept exactly one argument that is by definition the value between the : and }. The latter one accepts any number of arguments. So that needs to be clarified in the manual, but that also gives us one simple rule on which form to use in the manual: use %{foo ...} where required, and %{foo:...} elsewhere for compatibility.
