We propose to deprecate the following non-standard cast names: *
    |(integer)|
*
    |(boolean)|
*
    |(double)|
*
    |(binary)|
Hello,

Just wondering is this going to affect settype() function? There is already some disparity in that settype() supports integer/boolean/double but not binary type (and additionally supports null type).
