I really like Guido's idea of a context flag to control whether mixing of decimal and binary floats will issue a warning. The default should be to issue the warning (because unless you know what you're doing, it is most likely an error).
When you say "warning", do you mean warning.warn(), or an exception?
I'm not sure I understand your question. I did mean warnings.warn(). But that does raise a catchable exception or it can be suppressed through the warnings module. It should probably be set to warn no more than once. Raymond
