I was subtly trying to ask why it has not been implemented yet. I
guess that I was being too subtle.
I'm sure Paul didn't fall in the trap. ;-)
But yes, your were subtle at asking about something subtle...
You don't really want the coercion of Monday to text to be automatic, do
you?
No, want the coercion of Monday to an integer to be automatic.
... because I also wondered why month names and day names, all promoted
to first class citizens, have been handled differently since AS 1.9
(1.9.2 perhaps? too lazy/tired to check now).
David just suggested an explanation for the non-handling of day names;
but lots of languages are not so pudibond: they just compare days
according to some conventions.
There must have been a good reason, but I don't see which one...
