< * Add NUMERIC division operator that doesn't round?

<   Currently NUMERIC _rounds_ the result to the specified precision.
<   This means division can return a result that multiplied by the
<   divisor is greater than the dividend, e.g. this returns a value > 10:
<
<     SELECT (10::numeric(2,0) / 6::numeric(2,0))::numeric(2,0) * 6;
<
<   The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered
<   inaccurate, in one sense.

* Change NUMERIC to enforce the maximum precision
* Add NUMERIC division operator that doesn't round?
Currently NUMERIC _rounds_ the result to the specified precision.
This means division can return a result that multiplied by the
divisor is greater than the dividend, e.g. this returns a value > 10:
SELECT (10::numeric(2,0) / 6::numeric(2,0))::numeric(2,0) * 6;
The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered
inaccurate, in one sense.
* Fix data types where equality comparison isn't intuitive, e.g. box
* Allow user-defined types to specify a type modifier at table creation
