    Description

      e.g. the int value is printed as string

      $ qbs config int 42
$ qbs config int
int: "42"

      but is is stored as int in settings: 

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<integer>42</integer>
</plist>

      Importing/exporting such keys effectively loses type information at some point converting the value to string.
      Maybe we should store strings in the first place?
