A string template is interpreted at run time by replacing each expression with the result of evaluating that expression, possibly after further validation and transformation. This is a [preview language feature and API](http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12).

I think that valueTypes() should return the types of the values not the dynamic classes of the values.
Here there is no type information so it should be Object for all values.

It has also the nice property that the return type of the accessors returned by valueAccessors are the same as valueTypes() which is i believe more coherent.
