Is there a document that identifies the syntax of HTMLBars and its compatibility with Handlebars?

I considered asking this on StackOverflow, but thought it might be more of a pertinent question to ask in the context of this repo.

I didn't see any documentation of the HTMLBars syntax outside of what is discussed in the Ember.js guide. It seems like this could be really helpful, especially if a section were dedicated to highlighting the differences between HTMLBars and Handlebars, even going as far as to provide conversion examples.

If there is enough similarity between HTMLBars and Handlebars still, it seems like it would be possible to start with the Handlebars documentation and edit it for HTMLBars. I'm not sure I actually have the time, or the knowledge of the disparities between the two projects, to help fill this void but if I can do anything I would be happy to try.
