I noticed that the ability to type Rational("2.3") has been added (and I think this is a very useful addition). One minor nit: would it make sense to have Rational("2.") and Rational(".3") also work? These strings work for float() and Decimal(), and 2. and .3 work as float literals, so it would seem to make sense to allow this for Rational as well.
