Why does the following return the whole string "this.is.an.example":
(thing-at-point 'symbol)this.is.an.example
^

eval at point here
but using a temp buffer only returns "this":
(let ((type 'symbol)
(string "this.is.an.example"))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert string)
(goto-char 1)
(let ((thing (thing-at-point type)))
(message "%s" thing))))
I.e., the first word delimited by '.' as a delimiter (which i guess is the norm
for symbols).
