suggests this is no longer true and that you can template any
annotation field.

alerts, as well as in served console pages. Templates have the ability to run
queries against the local database, iterate over data, use conditionals, format
data, etc. The Prometheus templating language is based on the
[Go templating](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/) system.
