That's it -- there's a context object. And that's what should be used
for fixed point too. I also liked your 10d3 example -- it's a nice
extension to the basic syntax.

A last note: unless dictated by context otherwise, I think that adding
two fixed point numbers should round/truncate to the smallest number
of decimal places, as in:

12.34d + 10.001d --> 32.34
