It would be great. Thank you.

the thing is, we have support for 6 different databases and postgres
is the *only* one where its DBAPI implementation decides to use
Decimal for numeric types. the rest return just floats. that
means, people who have worked with databases other than postgres will
be totally surprised to plug in SQLAlchemy one day and all the sudden
they arent getting their expected float types back. So i dont think
one DBAPI should dictate the behavior for all DBAPIs, and its
definitely not a bug. its a feature request, asking for a generic
numeric type that is guaranteed to return decimal.Decimal objects
regardless of underlying DBAPI.
So, I would rather add a new type called DecimalType that creates
columns using NUMERIC semantics but explicitly returns
decimal.Decimal objects.

Hi,
I'm using SQLite in tests and there is a problem when using
decimal.Decimal with sqlalchemy's Numeric type:
SQLError: (InterfaceError) Error binding parameter 5 - probably
unsupported type.
This is not a new issue, a similar one was posted in
http://groups.google.com/group/sqlalchemy/browse_thread/thread/
300b757014c7d375/ad024f5365ab2eea
It looks like a bug in sqlalchemy, but I'd rather discuss it here
before creating a ticket. What I'd really like is that the Numeric
field could work with decimal.Decimal in SQLite as it does with
postgres, without any other external hack.
Regards,
André
