Marko A. Rodriguez closed TINKERPOP-1630.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Marko A. Rodriguez
The problem is as you mention -- what is {{String}} then? This is why
{{constant()}} exists. Its not pretty, but what can be considered theoretically
sound at this point in time. :| Closing. If you think we should focus on it for
TinkerPop3, please re-open.

> I often find myself writing stuff like {{sack(assign).by(constant(1))}}.
> Would be nice if I could simply do {{sack(assign).by(1)}}.
> {noformat}
> public default GraphTraversal<S, E> by(final Object value) {
> return by(__.constant(value));
