      Description

      Unlike documented here https://github.com/jenkinsci/pipeline-model-definition-plugin/wiki/Syntax-Reference such sample doesn't work

          environment {
        FOO = "bar"
        OTHER = "${FOO}baz"
    }

      Firstly ${FOO} cannot work it is a groovy variable and it should be escaped

      OTHER = "\${FOO}baz"

      or 

      OTHER = '${FOO}baz'

      And even by escaping it it's not working

      and we have

      [declarative-pipeline] Running shell script
+ printenv
...
OTHER=nullbaz
...
FOO=bar
...

      note that FOO is seen as null which makes no sense in shell env (it should be empty if unknown.

      cc Andrew BayerJesse Glickrsandell (should it be considered as a bug ? Or an improvement to do ?)

            does

            environment {
        FOO = "bar"
        OTHER = "$FOObaz"
}

            work? since that should be fixed in the latest pipeline release iirc.

            nope. 

            [Pipeline] End of Pipeline
groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: FOObaz for class: groovy.lang.Binding
	at groovy.lang.Binding.getVariable(Binding.java:63)

            It tries to find a groovy FOObaz var

            I'm attaching the job config file to easily reproduce it

            PR up at https://github.com/jenkinsci/pipeline-model-definition-plugin/pull/110.

            This will require either using single-quotes or escaping dollar signs - I don't think I can get around that.
