Folks,

What's out approach to float-point comparisons across the library?
I'm kidding :-)

Just for comparisons with Zero, I wonder if we could stick to absolute
epsilon comparisons [1].

There are some places, i.e. in the index, with such cases and
TODO comments too, so perhaps we could decide on it soon.
