In the database backends it is implemented as a fixed-point NUMERIC column, and in Python it returns values of type decimal.Decimal -- which are compatible with each other, but are both incompatible with floating-point numbers. So it should be renamed to DecimalField or something similar that doesn't imply floating-point numbers.
