   Well, my resolution on the issue is:

   DecimalCol will not be changed. I will add documentation explaining the
type affinity problem in SQLite.
   There will be a new DecimalStringCol that stores Decimals as text. If
you want quantization please write a validator class, and I will include it
into SQLObject. Initially it will be off, but a user can easily use it
- every column has a "validator" keyword argument.
   With all these changes a user is free to choose an implementation and
its price - DecimalCol or DecimalStringCol, or DecimalCol+quantization, or
DecimalStringCol+quantization.

Oleg.
