Jesse Kuhnert commented on TAPESTRY-572:
----------------------------------------
I think the translator services are meant to translate incoming values (which
are already strings) in to native/object types whereas validators would be just
for validation of input... In your case it seems input validation really is
all you need as translation from string -> number -> string wouldn't make any
sense. ...
Paul would know best in either case since he wrote the majority of this
infrastructure.

> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.1.2

> Applying NumberValidator to a TextField will allow a number to be validated
> as a number and stored as a String. However, NumberValidator is not able to
> take a String and display it as a number. I think this should be a
> bidirectional process. An example of where this would be useful is the
> following:
> I'd like to store a number as a String so I don't lose any prepending 0's
> (which RDBMSs love to throw out) when persisting the data. However, I do
> want to ensure that only a number is valid input.
