Remove TODO item, not wanted:

< * Add NUMERIC division operator that doesn't round?
<
< Currently NUMERIC _rounds_ the result to the specified precision.
< This means division can return a result that multiplied by the
< divisor is greater than the dividend, e.g. this returns a value > 10:
<
< SELECT (10::numeric(2,0) / 6::numeric(2,0))::numeric(2,0) * 6;
<
< The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered
< inaccurate, in one sense.
