Actually they map to two different calls of the neo4j core API.
The first one is a exact lookup for the value.
The second one takes an arbitrary query string and executes it against an
index, so it is much more powerful.
(But also dependend on the index-provider)
Main difference is that the query string has to be parsed by the index.
And around parameters, first one is better if you want to have the lookup
variable fixed.
start node=node:index(key={param})
start node=node:index({param})
