Yes @christianv, I would definitely like to know more about it so I can better understand the difference and the effects on performance. Consider yourself hit up!

Also, if it turns out that we're supposed to be using the data-ng-bind directive over the double-curlies in all cases, should I be doing clean-up as I go along?  For example, this same erb file has several instances of double-curly binding going on.  Should I go ahead and change that now, even though it's not really related to the ticket that I've currently branched?
