Unless you'd like to add support for non decimal systems as MRO and MGA. If this is a blocker for acceptance I could write a more generalised function. Other stuff could be included in the system described above. Even number formats have a wider range (some people group by 2 digit). I'm not aware of any other more generalised format.
So... no interest at all in having localisation of currency and float format?
I was going to suggest to develop a cck field for money and currency as a proof of your concept, but a quick google told me it's already done : http://drupal.org/project/money http://drupal.org/project/currency_cck http://drupal.org/project/currency Drupal contrib is astounding Philippe
