Description
This has been discussed before in different issues raised laravel/framework.
I think it would be rather handy if Eloquent's typecasting was extendable, so that as well as being able to automatically cast to the existing:
integer, real, float, double, string, boolean, object, array, collection, date and datetime
That we could also cast to custom cast types.
For instance when using value objects this would allow the automatic casting of a dec to a Money type object.
Thoughts?
