------------------------------------------
Yep, DAFFODIL-2353 mentions an approach to handling floats/doubles without loss
of precision.
> Customizable float/double infoset representation

> Key: DAFFODIL-2546
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2546
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Steve Lawrence
> Priority: Minor
>
> Daffodil's default InfosetOutputters use the Float/Double.toString() function
> for converting float/doubles to a string to be output to an infoset. For some
> values, the Java toString implementation will switch to scientific notation,
> which not all consumers can easily handle. We should add a tunable or some
> other configuration so that users can have some control over how
> float/double's are converted to a string so that this can be disable or the
> range changed.
