Bug description:  Need magic method for every data type

Description:
------------
Need magic method for every data type.

Why have a incomplete magic method list. Why not a __toInt and 
__toResource.

We are trying to change a legacy system to connect to mysql on demand 
and would love a __toResource magic method.  

Also anyone who uses class based enums would like a __toInt to convert 
the enum to is int valyue and to use __toSting to convert the enum to 
its label.

Reproduce code:
