Subject: Conflict between Select-Edit and attribute types 

When doing a Select->Edit operation, if an attribute has a type of "numeric" and the records selected already have (some) values for that attribute, then the "- keep original values -" message that is inserted to indicate that the values should be preserved causes the type check to fail.

Would it be possible to modify the Javascript that carries out the type check to treat the "- keep original values -" message as an exception?
