Yes.  See here:

One could argue that Drakma should be able to compute the right value
itself, but this is more trickier than one first thinks.  Of course,
if you think you know how to do this in a way that covers all corner
cases, I'd be happy to accept a patch.  The general design philosophy
of Drakma is that it should be as easy to use as possible.
