d1 decimal = "0.1";
=> d1 has value 0.

d2 decimal = "3.45";
=> d2 has value 3.

The same in Java returns what you'd expect (0.1 and 3.45, respectively).

Bumping importance since MVC is very reliant on string-to-decimal conversions working. Right now you pretty much can't use values with decimals in MVC.
