    Description

      This is something that has already been discussed. The reason that a g:Set is deserialized to a list is because Java can return some numerical values that are not differentiate by python. See TINKERPOP-1844 for more details.

      However, I think this is is not something very common so I would like to propose another behavior:

      1. By default, always return a python set as normal for g:Set
      2. When we detect the case described, log a warning and return a python list.
      3. Document properly the limitation and the behavior of g:Set.

      Already discussed with Stephen and we think it's an acceptable behavior. I will provide a PR shortly.
