WebStorage Variable Types

Hey,

Would there be any way to set a variable type for WebStorage Variables? Because it seems to me that they are always strings, and in order to work with an integer from WebStorage you have to use int(WebStorage.LocalValue("key")) - which can get annoying. And integers take up less space than Strings - heck, maybe even give an option to use Bytes in C2 - but without going there, I would really like to see more control over what kind of variable you are storing in WebStorage.

Thanks!

It's a good idea, but browsers simply only store strings in WebStorage. So in the interest of simplicity, instead of building some proprietary incompatible type-system specifically for C2 on top of WebStorage, it just uses strings only as well.

I thought that might be the problem - thanks for answering! I'll just manage with the functions.
