> If an operation passes in something like "enabled"=>"true" instead of "enabled"=>true for an AD whose type is BOOLEAN, validateAndSet should convert to BOOLEAN before storing and validateOperation should convert to boolean before returning.
> Doing it for validateOperation isn't so obvious, but that method already converts strings to expressions if expression are supported, and also runs any ParameterCorrector, so the method isn't a simple read of the model, and this new behavior is consistent. The method javadoc needs to be updated anyway to better reflect what it does.
> I don't propose to do anything complex here; e.g. descending into complex attributes.
> I'm pretty sure there's already a JIRA for this but I can't find it.
