why does finding a number in text [1] insist on "." as a decimal

I think the format should be kept simple (and potentially politically
incorrect), because the human-readability is only a legacy fallback
issue. That is, users aren't exposed to the number formatting in UAs
that actually implement progress bars and gauges.
You might also want to use this algorithm for the proposed class="price".
In that case you really want to take into account "," as well.
