Missing value-field in md-checkbox

[Undrium]

Dove deep into trying to find a reason to exclude the value field. Is there any plans on a native option to set the value of a md-checkbox or are we bound to Booleans? From experience of all the 100s of checkbox fields I have encountered they are rarely used for straight true/false value extraction.

It seems most solutions around this are that you will have to translate the input from the change attribute.

Indeed, value should be forwarded to the underlying native checkbox (which is used as the submission value for the form).
