      Currently to determine if type of expression is a number you have to do this:

      {$in:[ {$type:"$expression"}, ["int", "long", "double", "decimal"] ]}

      It would be nice to have shorthand syntax for this test. Maybe $isNumeric or $isNumber?

      Note that query/matcher already supports {a:{$type:"number"}} but not agg.
