hi Rozu,If you do this, or can't change the status quo, still appear quantity is very large, fixed unit name is the best way.

Nickel will look like a new coin, but run in the main chain with Pennies, if you have 100 CENT when using Pennies, and you import your CENT private key into Nickel client, then Nickel client will show you have 20 Nickel.
user A using Pennies transfers 100 CENT to user B using Nickel, user B will receive 20 Nickel.
i will consider how to divide later, i'm creating a new coin named as Nickel just for estimating workload of division.
it will be released after June 10 when 10.3.3 proved stable.
all can test Nickel to check whether it can work well together with CENT, if it works well, we can discuss how to divide, it's easy to implement then.
Use both ideas! If you are creating new coin let is divide it by 10 or 100 ...
How will it work with CENT exactly ?
