> * What is your evaluation of the proposal?
+1.  I would like to see .awayFromZero added as an option as well.  It is 
occasionally useful, and it would provide symmetry.

I would also like to see rounding precision as well, but that can be added 
later, so don’t let it stop this proposal

I think it is within scope of building the FloatingPoint protocol. I would miss 
it if it wasn’t there...

Yes, I like the use of an enum to specify the rounding type (as opposed to 
separate functions) with a common default.

This is much nicer than separate free functions for each type of rounding 
(which is what pretty much everything else I have used has).  I have found the 
rounding options for NSDecimalNumber very useful in the past.

A quick read.

Thanks,
