Would stripping out the thousand separator, and leaving in the decimal
separator work?
SELECT replace('9,000.34',',','')::numeric;
replace
---------
9000.34
If so, then (conceptually) does this work?
SELECT replace(
replace(my_numeric_string, user_thousand_sep, ''),
user_decimal_sep, system_decimal_sep
)::numeric
Or maybe I'm missing something about this!
