[1.3.1 Grid] Please keep allowing to pass widgetClass as a string

Description
I am relying heavily on the functionality that allows to pass the Cell widgetClass as a string
But I see in 1.3.1 that this will be deprecated in 2.0. If it all possible please keep that functionality in.
Here is the reason: most of the widgets in my application are specified and stored in a database as JSON
That JSON gets generated from Dojo widget descriptions language, I have done in Lua
In Lua as well as many other languages such as PHP for example A multi-value arrays are typically specified as
key?="value" (in lua) or "key"=>"value" (in PHP)
specifying widgetClass=dijt.form.NumberSpiner?
would be invalid
So my simple code of converting the Hash Maps into json will fail -- that's what I rely on to generate Dojo widjet description JSON.
If I keep "dijit.form.NumberSpiner?" in quotes -- I get the dojo message that this functionality will be lost
(function(){
var dgc = dojox.grid.cells; dojo.declare("dojox.grid.cells._Widget", dgc._Base, {
widgetClass: dijit.form.TextBox?, constructor: function(inCell){
this.widget = null; if(typeof this.widgetClass == "string"){
dojo.deprecated("Passing a string to widgetClass is deprecated", "pass the widget class object instead", "2.0"); this.widgetClass = dojo.getObject(this.widgetClass);
}
},
In JSON it is illegal to specifying something like dojox

At least in the latest in trunk, the code appears to exist for doing this (see dojox/grid/cells/dijit.js:26) - please reopen with a test case against the trunk if you are still having problems.
