Thanks Nick.  I'll go ahead and close this one, leaving the Decimal module only 
with lossless coercions that do not depend on the decimal context (this matches 
the underlying design of the decimal module which treats all numbers as exact, 
and only applying to the result of an arithmetic operation).

If needed, a new issue can be opened for a format specifier for the Fraction 
type.  It seems that we're all in agreement that that would be useful for the 
fractions module.
