My only concern is about making the code a hell by trying to keep some 
backward compatibility with old configs. In the past we went via radical 
changes, like with break replaced by exit or return.

I would prefer a strict config checker that will report errors rather 
than some stupid mistakes done because inside c code one adds an avp 
with name "34" an in script is still "i:34" and it is expected to be the 
same, but because now both are considered strings they are different.

To rephrase, I prefer either to drop completely the integer id or stay 
with current. Trying to automatically convert may bring other traps at 
runtime.

However, interger id will be compatible only with Kamailio PV model, ser 
avp naming scheme does not use them anymore in config language (some ser 
devel can correct me here if i got it wrong).

Cheers,
Daniel
