Making sure the type casts are sensible is an interesting idea... conversion is performed via GeoTools Converter implementations, which are pluggable. What I could do, is to add a check on whether a converter exists, that goes from the native type to the target type, using Converters.getConverterFactories(source, target). However, I have no way to tell if the conversion will be lossless, or not.... maybe the feature type should be marked as read-only in that case, as there is no guarantee the back-mapping would produce something sensible... on the other end, it might, and the mechanism would deny also working situations. What about documenting the issue, and letting the admin decide whether editing should be allowed, using the security sub-system (there is no other way to make a feature type read only)?
