Dropdown option id gets transformed from number to string

[tb-viktor]

Hello,

We have an issue in jspreadsheet where the dropdown option ids get transformed to strings and result in selections being invalid. After contacting support we have been directed here to make a feature request.

We allow the user to configure the values of their dropdown, which in this case are numeric ids and string names.

We pass the options in such a format:

[
  { id: 1, name: "Fruits" },
  { id: 2, name: "Legumes" },
  { id: 3, name: "General Food" }
]

After that if we select an option and try to read the value, it becomes e.g '1' instead of 1 and causes an option not found state.

There is a reproduction link here:

https://codesandbox.io/s/online-spreadsheet-with-react-and-jss-forked-e5sbwz?file=/src/App.js

Opening the console there and selecting a value will show the problem.

Is it possible to return the same value that is passed to the library?
