Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-1407:
----------------------------------------
Inclined to agree with the general trend that we don't "fix" this. 1.0 and 1
are the same value, libraries that ignore the consequences of JSON's definition
of number are broken and should be fixed.
I'd like to resolve as "Won't Fix" and updated BREAKING CHANGES for 1.2.0 to
reflect this decision.

> Key: COUCHDB-1407

> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HTTP Interface

> Environment: Ubuntu 12.04 (alpha)

> JSON encoding of Number has changed from 1.0.2 to 1.2. JSON only defines
> Number but this change causes issues in my app because python decodes the
> number as an int in 1.2.
> Test case:
> PORT=5985
> curl -X DELETE http://localhost:$PORT/test-floats/
> curl -X PUT http://localhost:$PORT/test-floats/
> curl -X PUT http://localhost:$PORT/test-floats/doc1 -H "Content-Type:
> application/json" -d "{ \"a\": 1.0 }"
> curl http://localhost:$PORT/test-floats/doc1
> Run against 1.0.2:
> {"ok":true}
> {"ok":true}
> {"ok":true,"id":"doc1","rev":"1-78e61304147429d3d500aee7806fd26d"}
> {"_id":"doc1","_rev":"1-78e61304147429d3d500aee7806fd26d","a":1.0}
> Run against 1.2:
> {"ok":true}
> {"ok":true}
> {"ok":true,"id":"doc1","rev":"1-78e61304147429d3d500aee7806fd26d"}
> {"_id":"doc1","_rev":"1-78e61304147429d3d500aee7806fd26d","a":1}
