Comment (by nacin):

 So this is to add a new meta_type query argument? Looks like this diff
 will need a bit more, then.

 Should meta_value_num convert itself to meta_value = meta_value_num and
 meta_type = int?

 get_meta_type() seems like it belongs as a static method on WP_Meta_Query.
 Maybe that's just me.

 Given both #15031 and #17065, I don't know if this should be pushed into
 3.5.
