Timecodes cause issue with RationalTime

Hiya, I've been playing with timecodes and media references, it was going great until I hit problems with comparing Time/Ranges.

It was going fine until I tried the following.

range_from_start_end_time(from_timecode("01:00:00:00",24.0), from_timecode("01:00:01:00",24.0)).contains(range_from_start_end_time(from_timecode("01:00:00:00",23.976), from_timecode("01:00:01:00",23.976)))
False

I'm wondering how we're meant to deal with this, are using TimeRanges/Rational times as containers for timecodes, is it just a non starter, dues to their odd behavior.

In timecode land 23.976 == 24.0, in RationalTime etc, 23.976 != 24.0.

cheers!

This makes me wonder if the EDL reader should set the clip rate to the int value, and use the global_start_time timeline attribute to set the fractional rate.

Does that make sense ?
