Proposal for new numbers support in Noms #3806

Closed aboodman closed 6 years ago

aboodman commented 6 years ago

There have been a number of request for better support for numeric types in Noms (#3801, #3802). With the benefit of some time away, I had some inspiration about how this should work.

I've created this start at a proposal. If you have feedback, please leave it here on the PR.

Eventually I will commit this in the proposal directory, and then (given energy/motivation) implement it and move the doc up to he docs directory when it is complete.

I think there are a bunch of problems with this, so I'm going to back up and start at desired features in a bug.
