[Feature Request]: Value mapper - add data type for map (to) values

[dave-csc]

What would you like to happen?

The Value mapper transform currently allows to map values to Strings only (i.e. the result of the map can only be a String).

Sometimes it can be useful to map values to other types: at the moment you can workaround by linking a Select values after mapping, or by replacing the map with a Stream lookup (and have the map table as lookup transform, via a Data grid for example).
