    Fix Version/s: 1.4-M1
         Assignee: Johan Compagner

We can only do this for Wicket 1.4 because the method we need to call is java 5

> Currently, if we use the BigDecimalConverter class, it converts the values by 
> first letting the NumberFormat to parse the value into a Double, which the 
> BigDecimalConverter class in turn turns into a BigDecimal.
> Unfortunately such an implementation loses precision, for example if we enter 
> "123.45" in a form, it can be converted to "123.45000000000001" or 
> "123.44999999999999999" thanks to the conversion to a Double.
> Fixing the issue is rather simple: check if the NumberFormat you get is a 
> DecimalFormat, and if yes, simply call format.setParseBigDecimal(true) and 
> the NumberFormat will interpret the values correctly.
