Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] json_decode/encode should return full precision values

If we're talking about encoding, that's what precision setting is - it
says how much we want to preserve in decimal encoding of float numbers.
Decoding, of course, should use whatever data available and not
truncate, but I understand that is already happening?

I don't see why not. That's exactly what precision setting is for, as
far as I can see.
