GDR! <g...@go2.pl> added the comment:

I didn't mean to implicitly convert Decimal to float. My point was that 
xmlrpclib should serialize Decimals natively to avoid loss of precision when 
converting to float and then to string.

Whether other party will be able to represent this number exactly or not should 
not be our issue. 

To make it more clear, this is what Python currently does:

this is what I propose it shoud do:
