Hi,
I am wondering why Integer strings store strings when the string that
you assign is non numeric.
ActiveRecord assigns at that point 0, but in Mongoid when you do
integer_field = "asd" it would actually
save "asd" which is pretty strange behaviour. What is the reasoning
behind that? Shouldn't it
default to 0 if the string is non numeric?
Cheers!

Hey Piotr. Mongoid should try to cast the string to an integer (Eg: "4asdf" becomes 4), or just store 0. Could you open an issue in GitHub for this, please?
