How do I lowercase a field using Handlebars.js?

Question

I want to do something like this:

{{user.name.toLowerCase()}}

but I get this error:

Error: Parse error on line X:
...tatus {{us

I created the following helper, but I'm curious if there's a better solution out there.

Handlebars.registerHelper('toLowerCase', function(value) {
    if(object) {
        return new Handlebars.SafeString(value.toLowerCase());
    } else {
        return '';
    }
});
