Velocity type

Hi,
setVelocity requires a float, but noteOn requires an uint8.
Is it possible to have an overloaded setVelocity that accepts uint8 too?

juce::MidiMessage message;
float newVel = 0.7;
message.setVelocity(newVel);
uint8 newVel = 89;
juce::MidiMessage message = juce::MidiMessage::noteOn(1, 50, newVel);
