NumberValue should have a bigDecimalValue() method #130
Description
It would be really helpful if NumberValue provided a bigDecimalValue() getter. Since the two most common implementations of NumberValue are BigDecimal and long (as well as the two most common standard types that users will be converting to/from) it would be really helpful to be able to write:
BigDecimal standardJavaNumber = myNumberValue.bigDecimalValue()
instead of:
BigDecimal standardJavaNumber = myNumberValue.numberValue(BigDecimal.class)

That's for a new JSR, @msgilligan you're more than welcome to join a proposed EG, I assume it could happen around the end of the year, certainly not before the summer break.
