Description

When validating numbers using NumberTranslator with French locale incorrect parsing of a user entered decimal occurs. Example, 55 000 results in a String value of 55 being returned by NumberTranslator. Reason being that the user enters a space (0x20) as the grouping separator, however, java.text.DecimalFormat expects a non-breaking space (0xA0). The tranlsator should replace grouping separator spaces with non-breaking spaces?
