Okay, I'll try to look into it next week, is that okay with you both?
I don't want to do it now since there might be more under the hood,
just thinking about automatic exponent choice, I have a module for
that, but it needs to pick up all the range the formatter spans over.

I'd say we also have use for three other configs of the exponent choice:
a) largest
b) smallest
c) mean
d) dynamic
exponent.

Examples:
(a)  0.001 10^2 ... 2.0 10^2
(b)  1.0 10^-1 ... 200.0 10^-1
(c)  0.01 10^1 ... 20.0 10^1
(d)  1.0 10^-1 ... 2.0 10^2
Sorry if there's some mistake but you see the principle.

Also the number of digits present need to be configurable ... enough for a week.

I favour (c) as the default, and 2 digits precision.
