   The 'P' is also a COBOL feature from their picture clauses.
   
   Also this change set incorporates additional review feedback on the 'V' 
feature change set.
   
   Note that the 'P' and 'V' feature does not support some obscure 
textNumberPattern as yet such as:
   
   1. a textNumberPattern with a trailing 'V' (no 0 digits after)
   
   2. combining 'V' with an exponent specification.
   
   Those usages are allowed technically by the DFDL v1.0 specification (the 
grammar in section 13.6.1.1 labeled Figure 4), but that usage is so obscure 
that I am NOT going to create a bug report about implementing these behaviors 
until someone complains.
   
   Similarly it is technically possible to use say, CR (carriage return) or 
ASCII NUL as your plus sign
   character. I claim that is a mistake in the DFDL spec to allow that, so use 
of line-ending characters is not allowed.
