I agree with Niklas here. It is the templates that are responsible for
converting their input and output correctly.

This problem mostly occurs when you copy-paste templates from other wikis (in
particular, from wikis using Latin-based languages such as English, etc). As
those conversions are not needed in the aforementioned wikis, their template
codes don't contain formatnum commands. In order to make them work in non-Latin
languages (and by "work", I mean to accept non-Latin digits as input), one has
to modify the code of the template by adding formatnum's here and there. This
is cumbersome, but it is the right way to do it.

I propose marking this as WONTFIX, because it is not a limitation on the
extension's part, but rather a problem associated with copy-pasting template
code from non-compliant sources.
