title: Save CQ Component field value as Long instead of String
body: <p>I am trying to save the value entered by an Author in a <a href="http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/current/widgets-api/index.html?class=CQ.Ext.form.NumberField" rel="nofollow">NumberField</a> as a 'Long' instead of 'String'. Is there a way to configure this or do I have write something custom?</p>
