I agree the FloatLocateConverter is horribly broken for negative numbers. 

But I'm not sure what the code here really should be. The existing code doesn't
make any sense to me. And it doesn't correctly handle things like infinity, NaN,
etc. And the non-locale-aware FloatConverter doesn't do this check anyway.

So I would like to just rip all this out, and return 
  new Float(number.floatValue());

This is potentially a minor backwards incompatibility - but only in
circumstances where the original code would have thrown a ConversionException.

That's actually another reason for ripping this code out - currently, this class
can throw a ConversionException even when the converter has a default value
defined, which users would expect to suppress all conversion exceptions.

Comments?
