1. [New comment] Conversion from Ironpython's Decimal to System.Decimal loses 
precision.

User jdhardy has commented on the issue:

"<p>@vernondcole: I agree, mostly. There are a couple of cases (decimal is one, 
uuid is another, and there are probably more) where being able to implicitly 
convert pure-Python types to .NET types would be very useful.</p><p>There are 
basically two ways to do that: bake knowledge of the Python types into 
IronPython, create a custom extension point that allows Python types to somehow 
say &quot;convert me to this .NET type&quot;, or define a few more hooks like 
__int__ and __float__. The first is a pain to maintain, but there's a 
relatively small set of types that it would apply to; the second is more 
flexible, but I have no idea how it would look right now; the third option is 
probably my favourite right now.</p"
