Provide some standalone examples

[jyasskin]

I tried to write a test case for googlearchive/TemplateBinding#188, but got stuck because there weren't any simple examples of the filtering library. TemplateBinding provides some at https://github.com/Polymer/TemplateBinding/tree/master/examples/how_to, but those don't include named scopes or filters because those features are provided by this library instead.

There's a bunch of stuff in these two:

http://www.polymer-project.org/docs/polymer/binding-types.html
http://www.polymer-project.org/docs/polymer/expressions.html

Neither includes a document I can open and watch it work, which matters because neither of those work outside of a polymer element.

Yep, that's true. We've made a conscious decision to provide all/most examples in the context of polymer-element. Early on, people got confused by the differences in helper lib examples where polymer sugars their usage. We decided to stick with polymer-element, because that's the majority.

That said, I think it would be great if this repo had a better README with examples :)

So, what do you need to include/run/setup to make this work outside of a polymer element? I mean, what's the point of the entire template tag standalone without this even?

Old question, but if you hadn't figured it out or anybody else comes across this: is='auto-binding' on a standalone template tag does the trick. See this blog post for more detail.
