Nino, DS has that build in with Component Property types. I'm not sure that's quite what the OP is asking.
If I'm not mistaken I think what Philipp is asking for is the ability to have types which go beyond the types defined in Configuration Admin (or for Service Properties). I think the only way to achieve that is to use an encoding scheme where by you pass around a configuration property that holds Strings encoded as JSON, but you have to do the work of turning that into a more complex object perhaps using JSONP or JSONB or the Converter. At least as David said, with Configurator it will automatically encode complex JSON properties as Strings for you. Just keep in mind, if the vehicle is Configuration Admin you won't have another choice, you can't force it to work outside it's specified types. You'll have to poor some sugar over it.
