Yeah, it's something that frustrates me when alternating between PC and Mac keyboards (Windows is literal, Mac is localized). Here's a page that shows several variants of numbers, both for the thousands and the decimal separators (see table 1-3) http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/806-0169/6j9hsml2b?a=view I think there are even some languages that use other characters than "," or "." Might I suggest something? Why not leave in this behavior? It's an initial bump to get used to, coming from the Windows world. But it *is* the correct behavior. The people behind GTK+/GNOME have a very strict worldview, but I think that a certain amount of simple consistency is called for. In this case, they made the right call. I know that I had a shock when getting used to the new keymaps (or maybe it's because the locale is now UTF-8 and the keymap has been tweaked to match). But it's *nice* for me to be able to get capital "�" in Linux. Just as I got used to that, others with get used to the localized radix being used. Besides, it'd be ironic for a French-driven disto to chnage the correct behavior in the French locale only. ;)
