Json.NET Primitive Types - use Decimal instead of Double

How can I make JSON.NET return a decimal instead of a double when parsing floats from JSON? (it's an object with a Dictionary<string,object> that is serialized).

I've tried writing a JsonConverter but the CanConvert method doesn't get called with a Double type in order to try and convert it. There's other code regarding overriding JsonTextReader but this doesn't seem possible in the latest versions of Json.Net.

In Json.NET 5.0, Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializerSettings class has the new property FloatParseHandling, you can set this property value Newtonsoft.Json.FloatParseHandling.Decimal
