And I would also like to ask again the opinion of all on the list if
"Dh" really is appropriate for the half-precision floating point types.
We are using "D" as an extension letter, it doesn't really mean "decimal"
anymore. :-)
half-precision floating point type is a binary floating point type whereas
the other "D[fde]" types are decimal floating point types.

That's correct but we have recently gotten requests for 6 new types and
rather than waste single letters, my suggestion was just use "D" for
a "family" of 2*26 more builtin types.
