I'll need to verify this statement, but I'm afraid that in case of OAuth 
we are currently limited to strings... Output data type translation was 
never implemented properly as brings minimal benefits (2 or 3 OIDC 
attrs). But certainly we have to fix this, I will think how we can 
approach this topic without introducing another level of complexity.
