> Project: Daffodil

>
> ICU only uses the positive pattern of the textNumberPattern property to
> determine pad character and position, completely ignoring the negative
> pattern. If the positive pattern has no affix associated with the pad
> character, then there is an ambiguity if the pad character should appear
> before or after the negative affix when unparsing negative numbers. In this
> case, ICU defaults to before the affix, with no way to change it via the
> pattern. This effectively means it is not possible for ICU number padding to
> appear after a negative affix if there is no positive affix.
> We need a way to specify that ICU pad characters should apper after an affix
> if the positive pattern does not have an affix.
