Info.plist: ${PRODUCT_NAME} versus ${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}

I am trying to discern the difference between
	${PRODUCT_NAME}
and
	${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}
as used in the Info.plist file.

I have done a reasonable amount of searching online and through the docs, but have found nothing (except for a lot of iPhone related confusion in regard to setting these for provisioning).

I know that PRODUCT_NAME is a Build Setting for a Target. And so see how ${PRODUCT_NAME} would initialize the Bundle name Key of the Info.plist file. Why is the Bundle identifier Key not set similarly, as:
com.myCompanyName.${PRODUCT_NAME}
but rather uses the :identifier addendum? What refinement or distinction is being made by the inclusion of the latter?
