That's probably a poor example. Australian postcodes should be a
StringField with a validation constraint ensuring that its 4 digits.

Why? Well, there are australian postcodes that start with 0 - Northern
Territory - and they're not going to be displayed correctly with ANY
reasonable localisation feature.

If any application requires a specific integer representation, then
they're outside the scope of localisation and their display should be
coded specifically.
