I f***ing hate plist format. Who thought this format was a good
idea? "Lets store typeful data in a typeless file format". And they
can't parse a negative number without quotes? Still not as bad as
parts of the EOModel file format parser using Y/N and others using
YES/NO and they DON'T PARSE the other syntax. That's my favorite
feature of all time.
My bigger concern is reading that back into Entity Modeler. I don't
know exactly what Cayenne's property list deserializer does there.
If you open the model after fixing the quotes, does Entity Modeler
actually parse it properly? It so, this should be easy to fix.
