Mmm, it seems that in JavaScript it's a bit tricky to find the subtype of an object, since typeof() returns Object for any given String, Number, Boolean.
But, as suggested here http://www.planetpdf.com/developer/article.asp?ContentID=testing_for_object_types_in_ja one could use the "constructor" property and do something more sophisticated. So, it should be up to GWT to see, after typeof() returns Object, what exact type is the object, whether Number, String, etc... Does anyone know where I should submit this request?
