<template name="sout" value="println($END$)" description="Prints a string to System.out" toReformat="true" toShortenFQNames="false">
Is it possible to create a live kotlin template like {statement}.{{templateName}}? Similar to how doing something like

val x = "hi"
x.sout <Tab> // -> println(x)

ATM, I just duplicated the sout template and added my own, but it doens't work where I call it on another variable. Is that even possible?
So I can do something like
x.{{templateName}}<Tab> // -> Something.doSomething(x)

<Tab> is literally pressing the tab key while in IntelliJ. Try doing it. Write down an expression and do {expression}.sout and it will automatically complete to println({expression})
