Hi Gregor - the root of the misconception I likely have about
significant digits and the like, is that such is one example of a
rendering parameter not a semantic property. But maybe I've missed the
part of the discussion that cleanly separates these things into buckets,
and perhaps I have my head way too (deep in the sand) to understand the
discussion altogether, but that's my two cents fwiw. 

With regard to
other relevant worthy efforts, I suggest
