Comment:
The documentation doesn't say anything about this problem - in fact it
sounds like it should work as i expect it to work:
Django will also use localized formats when parsing data in forms.
Now this sounds like it should also work in admin. But i doesn't - and
there's nothing in the admin docs about it.
And a custom ModelForm/ModelAdmin just won't cut it - i don't want to
redefine my whole admin just because of some missing localization.
By the way: This is some real world problem. I have users that are just
using the frontend with numbers like they're used to (because i've set
localize to true). Now some of them are using the admin too and are
complaining why they have to type in the same numbers using English
formatting.
On a side note: I don't really understand why i have to explictly set
localize when USE_L10N is already set to True. That doesn't make sense to
me.
