Support for LongValue type

Hi, currently I'm working with data containing columns that exceed the range supported by the IntValue type. Despite the fact that there is a type LongValue I noticed that the support is very limited even by the standard nodes, e.g.

  • the "Table Creator" node does not support columns with type LongValue

  • the "Number to String" node is handling values defined as LongValue as if they were of type DoubleValue, i.e. 1385294400000 is converted to "1.3852944E12"

I found a forum post (http://tech.knime.org/node/20438) dating from 2008 that addresses the issue. Are there any plan to fully support type LongValue? Regards, Björn
