@AlenkaF @jorisvandenbossche I've added a test and restored the decimal index from strings. This looks like a bit of a kludge. I think it's because both numpy and pandas don't understand `Decimal`. It's just an object, like any other, so you might expect similar issues for any other object type used as a column index. However, `Decimal` is not just any object and it does make some sense to use as an index, just like dates, so I feel it's a warranted addition. Let me know what you think. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
