Can anyone explain why SQL Server's @@IDENTITY field is returned as a System.Decimal from the managed provider, regardless of the column's SQL type (int in this case)? Or at least can they confirm that it is always Decimal, and doesn't vary? Smells like laziness in the TDS parser, but I just wanted a sanity check.
