No easy way to serialize ids

[amk221]

My use case is our API requires the id in a JSON payload to be an integer not a string.

• Would like to be able to use serializeAttribute, but it doesn't get called with id
• Could use a combination of serialize, serializeBelongsTo, and serializeHasMany but still requires you to go through all relationships to alter the IDs.

serializerAttribute isn't the correct place as an id isn't an attribute. Hm, not sure of a nice api that would work with both foreign and primaryKeys. Any ideas?

Looks like serializeId used to exist:

data/packages/ember-data/lib/system/serializer.js

Line 406 in 01ad4a9

serializeId: function(id) {

Currently one has to go around the houses (gist)

Closing this as we're tracking the issue in #4477 (should be fixed by #4620)
