I greatly appreciate that someone took the time to confirm the problem. I
agree, that the problem is not a classical show stopper, but it really can
_silently_ alter your data almost without you noticing, which for currency
fields dealing with money really _is_ a major problem. 

I still feel uneasy that even if you enter some value above/below the max/min
values and everything works correctly, the values get simply corrected upon
field update and the user is _not_ notified.  This is not strictly part of this
problem but it lead to the "almost silent" data alteration.


BTW: I actually use DECIMAL for money values, I was just to lazy setting up the
test case with it and for the point in question it does not matter
