yeah, i was debating that part.  i think it depends on the parser.  python 
seems to be sane as it will use int() on every integer rather than float().  
and when they say "int", they mean it in the mathematical sense, not as 
defined by C.

maybe make it into a runtime option specific to that module like --strings-
everywhere.
