That begs the question though, doesn't it? :)

The steps I outlined are how I'd cope with the return type changing from
"int" to "double" without ever introducing compile errors and without
needing to submit any global cleanup changelists.  Adding a GwtInt
intermediary step means needing to instead cope with converting the return
type from "int" to "GwtInt" and then again from "GwtInt" to "double", which
each seem as hard if not harder than the original problem.
