Comment (by SmileyChris):

 You may have had that view because Django templates always applie
 ``unicode()`` to the final output of variable tags. Glad we got to the
 conclusion in the end :)

 I'll review your patch when it comes in and push forwards if it's all
 good. Remember, we need to keep the current behaviour so it should look
 something like this:
 {{{
 #!python
 try:
     value, arg = int(value), int(arg)
 except (TypeError, ValueError):
     pass
 try:
     return value + arg
 except:
     return value
 }}}
