Keep in mind that [list implode] must be smart enough to output the float

It's not that simple. People might not want always a cast to float,
because then, it might destroy part of the information in the symbol.

that's how [gf/s2l] is different : it outputs only symbols. I think I
could make it an option, but I wouldn't know how to call it. E.g. :
[gf/s2l /, docast]
[gf/s2l /, convert]
[gf/s2l /, atof]
where the name after the comma is an attribute method taking one optional
float arg defaulting to 1, just like all other flags in GF, defined like
this :
\attr bool docast;
void cast_if_wanted (t_atom *foo) {if (docast) ........;}
