The Fractions.from_float() call returns an incorrect value when run on certain numbers. Some test runs have been listed below. Note that this problem does not exist when the same float is converted to a string and then passed to the standard Fraction() constructor; I do not know if this is an inherent problem due to the structure of the float itself or an implementation issue.

>>> for x in [1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26, 1.27]:
	print(Fraction.from_float(x))
	print(Fraction(str(x)))

127/100

The problem does not exist if a string literal is passed either:

>>> print(Fraction('1.23'))
123/100

Please read about floating point arithmetic in the tutorial:

   http://docs.python.org/tutorial/floatingpoint.html

Also observe that this works:

    >>> Fraction(Decimal('1.23'))
    Fraction(123, 100)

So yes, it is a limitation in how floating point is represented...in all languages and platforms that use binary floating point.
