Trying to build a model with a loop in which the output map of a command
is the loop variable, I came across the following issue.
The model is just one command, r.neighbors, with output=%output. The loop
is defined as 'output in range(1995,1998)'. When trying to run this model,
I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

When I reformulate the loop as 'output in ['1995', '1996', '1997'] it works.
I understand that this is a variable type issue. However, when I run the
same model as a python script, both forms are accepted. Any chance the GUI
modeler could accept the range() form as well ? This makes creating loops
less typing-intensive as having to write out the numbers as strings.
I can get it to work by using 'output in map(str, range(1995,1998))', but
this requires a fairly good knowledge of Python, so if the simple range
command could work, just as it does in the Python version of the script, I
think this would be preferable as it would keep things in sync between the
two.
I've attached images of the model to make my issue clearer (obviously this
is just a test model which does nothing useful).
