> Since there are many places/cases where we store boolean properties as string 
> properties in jcr (i.e a checkbox from a dialog), it's quite cumbersome to 
> convert those in FreeMarker.
> Instead of what I'd expect to write: {code}
>     [#if content.myProperty]<p>Hello world</p>[/#if]
> {code}one currently has to write something along these lines{code}
>     [#if content.myProperty!'false'=='true']<p>Hello world</p>[/#if]
> {code}... which is admittedly annoying, awkward and downright ugly.
> Here's a patch that shows we could expose strings as models of both strings 
> and booleans to FreeMarker
