 Can't post using Ecto b/c categoryID should be string not int

 ADDITIONAL DETAILS

 FROM http://nslog.com/2007/01/23/categoryid_in_wordpress_21_breaks_ecto/

 When requesting new information in ecto (via "Refresh"), ecto attempts to
 retrieve the last 15-20 or so entries, their categories, their dates, etc.
 WordPress 2.1 sends this:

 {{{<member><name>categoryId</name><value><int>7</int></value></member>}}}

 It should send this:

 {{{<member><name>categoryId</name><value><string>7</string></value></member>}}}
