> Most notably, the common "service.ranking" needs to be an Integer, while the jcr property mapping only allows for "Long" types at the moment. The problem is that JCR has a smaller set of property types than the OSGi config admin (JCR: String, Boolean, Long, Double, Decimal; OSGi: String, Boolean, Long, Integer, Float, Double, and probably more differences...).
> Similarly to properties files (which do it in the value like 'service.ranking=I"-10000"' with I=Integer), there must be a way to explicitly specify the type regardless of the JCR type. For example, encoding it in the property name like "service.ranking{int}".
