Using Plain Go Type

[AngangGuo]

From example:

browser, err := pw.Chromium.Launch(playwright.BrowserTypeLaunchOptions{
    Headless: playwright.Bool(false),
})

Is it possible to use plain Go type bool like:

browser, err := pw.Chromium.Launch(playwright.BrowserTypeLaunchOptions{
    Headless: false,
})

You can convert false to playwright.Bool(false) in Launch() method.

This will be easier for end user.
Also the you may not need to export Bool() or similar type convert method as a public method.

Hi,

yeah, the point of that is it's otherwise not possible to differentiate if a value was set or not internally which have to check somehow. GRPC/Protobuf are using it in the same way.
(These methods are basically returning it's pointer value)

But I fully agree, that this harms the DX.

Understand. Thanks.
