Any way to make a uniform vec3 display in the UI as a group of numbers rather than assuming it's a color?

[Shnazzy]

I'm opting to use GLSL code instead of nodes. My shader has a vec3 uniform, but it's not a color, and is instead just a vector in 3D space. Malt seems convinced though that it's a color, and displays it like this on the UI panel. However, if I make an equivalent of this shader but with nodes and declare the vec3 as a property, it shows up the way I'd want it with three individual numbers. Is there some kind of way to mark uniforms in my code to use a preferred subtype? I had originally assumed the META customization options would make this happen but if they can, I clearly haven't figured out the right way.

While looking through the code I think I saw a TODO related to this (if my assumptions are right), but I'm not sure how much of a priority it is.

Thanks.

This is not possible at the moment and is not currently planned (I'm not sure what TODO you are referring to).

You can always use a single node in your node tree if that's what you want.
Also, keep in mind that some features, like AOVs, are only available through nodes.
