pieter martin commented on TINKERPOP-1639:
------------------------------------------
Another operation to think about is casting.
It is often the case that when the data is loaded the proper type is not known
and the property is captured as a `String`. Later an analyst or whoever
actually understands the data can cast it to the proper type and do further
manipulations on it.
> Support simple String operations
