And the approach I proposed; that would help out of they were actually strings right? I wonder if we could make a "converter" for Number; and ask the comparison to try and convert things to a Number first (your earlier patch was a request to try a numeric conversion first; and only if that fails do a string based comparison). We actually do not do a string based comparison; we try and use Comparable (so enumerated types can be good values etc...).
