[gdal-dev] Raster Attribute Table RFC

[Sam Gillingham]

Etienne, Frank,

The original idea was to save space with the byte type, although I admit
bools are a rather unusual case. If we represent them as ints it might be
more straightforward just to use the int form of ValuesIO instead. How
about removing the bool form of ValuesIO and should a future driver support
bools it can treat them as ints?
