Hi Angelos,

The overall direction and writeup for this looks good to me.  I think we need to be more specific about how doubles & floats fit into this though as they are perpetual source of special cases.

Indeed, floating point is the gift that keeps on giving.

Joe recently did some nice work in the spec of Float and Double, outlining the various different ways in which floats can be compared.  This allows language features like pattern matching, casting, and switch to appeal to "compared by FooBar comparison", rather than spelling it out for each use.
