So in other words, that's been added to the TODO list *purely* on your
own say-so, and not because any users asked for it or anyone else thinks
it's a good idea.

Since MONEY really ought to be considered a tagged type, I'm not at all
impressed with the idea that there should be default casts between it
and plain numerics.  There's a fundamental semantic gap there.
