The idea has merit, but I'd still like to have an attribute that gave me
what I want for the standard types without any effort on my part to override
it. There might be times when I'd like to override 'Image with something of
my own (and 'Value?) but when I just want quick & dirty conversion to a
string - sans leading space - I'd hate to have to write code of my own.
Otherwise why not simply encase Integer'Image(something) in an editing
function?
