  I can see the twine can report its battery voltage, but there seems to be no way to include this in a SMS or other message.
  
  Is there a generic way to include sensor values in a message? Something like <%twineID.temp> or <%twineID.voltage>, where twineID is the name I give the twine?

  Another upvote for being able to use substitutions in email i.e.:
  
  "The Boiler Room is now [%temperature]. Turn off the heating!"

  I agree, sensor values should be able to be sent upon request using the appropriate string. eg blah blah blah [temp] blah blah [orientation] blah blah [breakout] blah blah [batt voltage] etc etc...

  I saw this screenshot from the homepage (http://supermechanical.com/twine/spool-screenshot-2-large.jpg), and thought perhaps it was as simple as (temperature). No dice!

  Does this work anywhere outside of HTTP request?

  The way Twine works with SMS and email, both use email. SMS is sent using your carriers SMS email gateway, so if email doesn't work, the odds are basically certain you won't get SMS. For reasons known only to the Twine deity, a lot of us in Canada are having this problem.

  Yes, please add the ability to include sensor values in the body of e-mail.

  This sounds like it would be very useful.

  very much agreed. Why include this ability in the http trigger and nowhere else?

  I'm jumping on this bandwagon - the inability to include the measured variable in the message is a show stopper for all the applications I have in mind!
