Implements a suggestion from #64199 (comment):
ItemRecord
typeField.getValue
always optionalgetValue
implementation, castitem
toany
to prevent type errorsThis greatly simplified the types, at the cost of slightly decreased type safety. Which is very theoretical anyway and IMO has little impact in practice.
Accessing
item[ field.id ]
will crash ifitem
isundefined
ornull
. It's true that the types don't prevent that, and that ideally they should. But almost all JS values support the property access operator, including primitives like numbers.
