title: float in REST-API call
body: <p>how can one send float values to a RESTful API?</p>
  
  <pre><code>/api/set/integername/49
  
  /api/set/charname/B
  
  /api/set/floatname/49.33
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The third one doesn't work. </p>
  
  <pre><code>404: Not Found
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can float values be encoded somehow to make this possible or do I have to wrap it in a json object?</p>
