Bind checkboxes to a list of numbers

[Pavel]

When binding a checkbox to an array property, it works only if array contains strings, but does not work with numbers:

<label><input type="checkbox" value="1"   data-bind="checked: colors" />Red</label>

var viewModel = kendo.observable({
    //colors: ["1", "2", "3"] //works
    colors: [ 1, 2, 3 ] //does not work
});

Would be nice to remove this limitation to have a cleaner view model.
Here's a dojo representing it: http://dojo.telerik.com/uHaNO

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback Pavel!

I am glad to say that we are already working on strongly typed value and checked binding implementation, that would handle such scenarios. Keep an eye on the our Roadmap for additional details.
