@@ -32,6 +32,7 @@ Enhancements
 * Added `FnPtr::call` and `FnPtr::call_within_context` to simplify calling a function pointer.
 * BLob's can now be deserialized (using `from_dynamic`) into `Vec<u8>` via [`serde_bytes`](https://crates.io/crates/serde_bytes).
 * A function's hashes are included in its JSON metadata to assist in debugging. Each function's `hashBase` field in the JSON object should map directly to the pre-calculated hash in the function call.
+* `Expression` now derefs to `Expr`.
