Since version 12.2.0, the pwg.getInfos method returns the following array:

{
    "stat":"ok",
    "result":{
        "infos": [{"name":"version","value":"11.5.0"},
                  {"name":"nb_elements","value":"339"},
                  {"name":"nb_categories","value":"28"},
                  {"name":"nb_virtual","value":"28"},
                  {"name":"nb_physical","value":"0"},
                  {"name":"nb_image_category","value":"348"},
                  {"name":"nb_tags","value":"11"},
                  {"name":"nb_image_tag","value":"33"},
                  {"name":"nb_users","value":"7"},
                  {"name":"nb_groups","value":"1"},
                  {"name":"nb_comments","value":"0"},
                  {"name":"first_date","value":"2017-08-31 22:44:11"}
                  {"name":"cache_size","value":4242}
        ]
    }
}

The added name and value pair (last of the list) contains a value of type Integer instead of String. This has broken the simple JSON decoding job in third party apps.

This new JSON data requires a much more complex decoder able to manage two different types for the same value key. It would have been much simpler to adopt the same String type. Can this be corrected?
