Ulrich Stärk commented on TAP5-211:
-----------------------------------
The majority of the world (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator#Examples_of_use) is using the
',' char as a seperator and you are saying there is no general need?
Sure, for a simple form on some page you can just provide your own Translator
for the respective field. But if you are using components that rely on
translators from the TranslatorSource service (like BeanEditForm) you can't
just contribute your own translators, you'll also have to replace the
TranslatorSource with an implementation that uses the current user's locale, so
a workaround is everything else but trivial. And then there is still the client
side validation issue.
So there are two things that need to be adressed:
1. We either need to have a TranslatorSource that takes into account the
current user's locale or extend the Translator interface
2. We need a client side parsing function that matches the server side.
Dojo (http://api.dojotoolkit.org/jsdoc/dojo/1.2/dojo.number) has a number
parser/formatter that can handle different locales, maybe we can borrow
something from there.

> Localization support for pages and messages is great in Tapestry but it lacks
> support for localization of input values because the translators don't have
> support for it. It would be great if users could just enter numbers etc. in
> their respective locale, e.g. use ',' instead of '.' to seperate decimal
> places from the integer part, out of the box.
