Yeah, it could be related to that, for sure. Basically, during migration we could do automatic upgrade checking on value types. Or do nothing, if we do the type name trick, in which case the mapping happens at runtime and no migration of state is needed.

Is there anything planned regarding migration ? (Sorry but qi4j's
JIRA and Git seems to be down)

There is already a Migration API in qi4j-extensions. It allows you to specify Entity-evolution quite a bit, with both upgrade/downgrade rules, as well as custom "do-whatever-you-want" options.

Well, we already have support for collections (e.g.
Property<List<String>>  stringList()), so isn't that enough?

Should be, Property<Map<>>  does not work... but I can live with that

Well, Map should be mapped to JSON-objects rather than JSON-arrays, right? Should be possible to do as well.
