I have been thinking about the feature with `${HOME}` etc. in default file
paths. It would be good to also have `${OUTPUTFORMAT}` (or just `${FORMAT}`
like the Lua variable) so that you could do things like this:

``````yaml
defaults:
  - ${.}/defaults/${FORMAT}.yaml
``````

Filters, CSS, includes and metadata/variables come to mind as things which
often should be different based on the output format in a single-source
scenario which could be handled this way, but there probably would be other
uses which at least I can't foresee.

While there certainly are situations where you could invert this and say

``````yaml
defaults:
  - ${.}/defaults/common.yaml
``````

in `./defaults/latex.yaml` there certainly are situations where including
the format-specific file from the common file will be more intuitive.
