+- RFC PR: (leave this empty)
+- Ember Issue: (leave this empty)
+
+# Summary
+
+The goal of this RFC is to increase composability opportunities in Ember by allowing helpers
+to be invoked and curried in a similar way as how actions and components can be dynamically
+be invoked now.
+
+# Motivation
+
+Since Ember 2.3, released over a year ago, the framework has enjoyed a feature commonly
+referred to as **contextual components** that allows components to be dynamically invoked by name
+and also to be wrapped along with arguments and passed as regular values to later on be invoked.
+
+Example from the blog post of the 2.3 release:
+
+```hbs
+{{#alert-box as |box|}}
+  Danger, Will Robinson!
+  <div style="float:right">
+    {{#box.close-button}}
+      It's just a plain old meteorite.
+    {{/box.close-button}}
+  </div>
+{{/alert-box}}
+```
+
+This features allows the creation of very nice domain-specific APIs in components. Some examples
+of this in the wild can be found in [ember-basic-dropdown](https://github.com/cibernox/ember-basic-dropdown),
+[ember-form-for](https://github.com/martndemus/ember-form-for) and [ember-power-calendar](https://github.com/cibernox/ember-power-calendar).
+
+However, the same feature is not yet supported for helpers and it would be equally useful for
+exposing helpers with prepopulated arguments or options to provide better APIs.
+
+# Detailed design
+
+The design of this feature should be as similar as possible to the **contextual components** feature,
+so users feel confortable with it immediatly.
+
+Therefore, the natural option would be the creation of a `helper` helper that, depending on the context,
+invokes a helper by its name or creates a closure helper to pass it around.
+
+However, there is an ambiguity with this approach that is not present with components. I'm going to expose
+the problem first, since it's going to drive the entire design of the feature.
+
+```hbs
+{{my-component format-date=(helper "moment-format")}}
+```
+
+In the example above it's not clear the intention of the developer. The developer's intention
+can be a few things:
+
+- Immediatly evaluate the helper and pass the value of its evaludation to the component
+- Create a closure helper and pass it to the component, so it can be called later.
+
+Note that this ambiguity is not present when the `helper` helper is called in the
+context of html. By example
+
+```hbs
+<strong>My name is {{helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}</strong>
+<button title={{helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}></button>
+```
+
+In those examples above the only option can be immediatly evaluate.
+
+How is this problem solved?
+
+#### Use a different helper for creating closure helpers and to evaluate helpers
+
+To remove the ambiguity, there are two different keywords for the two different features.
+
+Ideas include `helper` to create the closure helper and `invoke-helper` to invoke it.
+Another possible names borrowed from Ruby conventions can be `helper` (closure creator) and `helper!` (invocation).
+
+Examples:
+
+```hbs
+<strong>My name is {{invoke-helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}</strong>
+<button title={{invoke-helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}></button>
+<strong>My name is {{helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}</strong> <!-- Invalid invocation -->
+<button title={{helper 'capitalize-str' user.name}}></button> <!-- Invalid invocation -->
+
+{{my-component format-date=(helper "moment-format")}} <!-- Creates closure helper -->
+{{my-component format-date=(invoke-helper "moment-format")}} <!-- Invokes helper -->
+```
+
+The obvious drawback of this alternative is having two new keywords in Ember instead of one.
+
+Ideally, since the idea of wrapping a component and a helper is very similar, I think that 
+this keyword should be used for both components and helpers and replace the existing 
+overloaded `component` keyword.
+
+# How We Teach This
+
+Given the parallelism with closure components it's not going to be hard to teach. It will follow the usual
+process of documentation in the API and in the guides.
+
+# Drawbacks
+
+Every dynamic feature has some runtime cost. I've heard about some proposals to limit the possible
+components that the `{{component}}` helper can invoke so the dependency resolution can be done statically.
+Whatever solution is designed for the component helper must also be take into consideration for the `{{helper}}` helper.
+
+# Alternatives
+
+The RFC already discusses the alternative paths since they are the main subject of the proposal.
+
+# Unresolved questions
+
+To be determined.
