I have to weigh in on the 'not a bug' side. Maybe it's my science and engineering background. A field spec of NUMERIC(10,2) means two places after the decimal. The PROPER representation then, of 10.2 is exactly what the TRANSFORM produces, 10.20.
That said, they should have told us (or kept the docs more in line with actual behavior?), we shouldn't have had to gone through headscratching and posting on a public forum to realize the behavior has changed.
