hey all,

Value implicit support is provided for bool, double, int, in64.
why not for float? int is supported in 2 precisions? so why not saying for float the same..

this would imply some extension of code i know, but what was the reason for leaving it out?

Nobody uses float. The only reason for using float is for compacting storage in specific cases. It is like int16.

There is no point for supporting everything in Value. Specially float you can always represent as double.
