Default JSON serialisation of character types

Is there a way to customise the default JSON serialisation of character types?  Specifically, I'd like them to be serialised to JSON strings rather than numbers and wondered if there are any options for this?

I know I can register a custom serialiser using TRttiJson.RegisterCustomSerializer, but then I need to do this for each distinct character type, so a way to customise the default would be preferable.

My guess is that JSON serialization of character types into numbers was not correct.
Even mORMot 1 generated JSON strings.

Thanks, character types are now being serialised as strings, although it doesn't currently escape control characters.
