like what?
there were modules that work with integer avp names only, there are
tools that rely on that. Dropping them at once, without having a
transactional release to mark as deprecated/obsolete, will break many
things out there and people will not be happy.

why should script write care, how avp names are
internally
implemented. the only case that comes to mind is if someone has been
using two avps that have the same string representation, e.g., i:123 and
s:123. even that can be easily fixed by dropping : and use s123.
i have always used int avp names and don't have any problem to convert
them to strings.
