ImageJ and decimal arithmetic

I was recently asking a few code strategy questions over at other Java  
forums and every reply I got contained the same advice: switch to  
decimal arithmetic. This seems to be something considered basic  
practice in a lot of Java circles. And the links they pointed me to  
regarding the dangers of floating point were pretty hair-raising.

Is anyone incorporating decimal math into their ImageJ processing? And  
if so may I ask how you are doing it? Has anyone by chance created a  
Decimal Processor for themselves?

Thanks,
Eric
