...and a CMS is not a programming language.

Much as I disagree with Stephan's working style on this project, I have to admit
he has a point on the naming of types.

If you ask a content manager what an 'int', 'bool' or 'str' are you'll probably
get blank looks; 'Number', 'Checkbox' and 'Single line of text' might get a
better response.

cheers,
