Description
Since django 1.0 the template filter floatformat, converts the value to unicode and after it to Decimal. So you can't pass anymore objects to floatformat, which provides a float method but not a unicode or str method.

I've attached a patch with a regression test for objects with __float__ methods and a proposed fix. Objects with __float__ methods are simply converted to floats. It passes all the tests.

The problem with the patch is that decimal objects have a __float__ method. We don't want to convert decimals to floats due to the possible loss of precision, so the code should only convert to a float if it has already failed to convert to a decimal directly.
