Dalai Felinto changed title from ~~Boolean properties not showing checkboxes when exposed in the modifier stack for geometry nodes~~ to Boolean properties not exposed in the modifier stack as integer

This is a more general thing that's not related specifically to the geometry nodes modifier.

The properties exposed in the modifier use IDProperty. There is an integer IDProperty type, but no boolean type.
Such a thing would not be complicated to add, but as D9697 has significant impact in this area, personally I would prefer to wait for that to progress before spending more time here.

Adding a related paste for exposing color values in the modifier stack. Seems related to this task. P2033
