BUG - GET REST API returns strings for non-string primitives

Here's the setup:

In Nuxeo Studio, create new Document Type "mydoc"
On Schema tab, add a field "foo" type "Boolean"
Save
In DM, update project from studio
Create a new "mydoc" in Document Management
Call REST API /nuxeo/api/v1/path/default-domain/workspaces/myworkspace/mydoc
In returned JSON, the field "foo" is returned as "true" or "false" (with the quotes)

By comparison, POSTing to the same API allows a JSON boolean to be posted. It would seem to be most useful if the GET API worked the same way.

When I get some time I'll go through the Nuxeo DM code and find the spot where this is ocurring and post follow-up comment on this question.

Dug through the nuxeo-features code base and found
