float rejected from sandbox upload as Json object

Using a schema that is ready to load into Freebase, and containing a column
mapped to a property of type 'float'. Load the triples into Freebase
sandbox. I find that all the float values are being rejected as Json objects.
See http://gridworks-loads.freebaseapps.com/job/23

In the schema alignment skeleton, the language value is set to /lang/en. (not
sure if that is of interest)

Let me know if you need the project file.

The data sent actually is a string (it has "" quotes around it). Have you called value.toNumber() on those
columns?

Yes, value.toNumber() has been used to transform all the cells. The values remain
quoted and still failing -> http://gridworks-loads.freebaseapps.com/job/25

Fixed in r708. Iain, could you check out and verify? Thanks.

Seems to be fixed from the preview. (no quotation marks around floats). However, the
fix to issue #10 threw a bug which prevents me from uploading at this time (see comments
to # 10 for bug)
