Hello Marko.

Thanks for the explanation and sorry for not spotting my mistake. Please
close this bug as invalid.

It would however have helped if I had gotten back the expected type and
the actually provided type; even in verbose mode this was not supplied.
Would this be possible, or is there already a configuration option to
enable this?

Cheers,
Matt
