Answer 1

You can override serializeQueryParam and deserializeQueryParam private methods in your route.

https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/blob/v2.15.1/packages/ember-routing/lib/system/router.js#L703

https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/blob/v2.15.1/packages/ember-routing/lib/system/router.js#L739

In these methods instead of JSON.stringify and JSON.parse, you can return the value itself and get whatever you want to parse from the string.
