I still don't get why you need to use float for product / services lines. In products, you can use Unit of Measures, which should deal with different amounts. I think I'm not understanding your point. But you should be able to achieve most (all?) scenarios with pricelists and the product Unit of Measure (UoM) , using always integers (so 0.5 hours can be encoded as 30 mins, for instance) Let's have an IRC talk and we'll try to solve it.
