European number format for French Locale

Despite the new march 2024 ability to define Language and Locale in the profile, the number format for "French" is not the one expected (dot as thousand separator and comma as decimal separator).

Nevertheless this expected format is available in spanish language.

It appears that this is due to the international CDLR based standard formatter shipped by JavaScript / all browsers, so this one seems to be inadequate for french.

  • For those having the same concern, after checking the different "French Locale", there is one which does the trick : "Français - Luxembourg"

    All the others are using the space as the thousand separator which is not correct IMHO.
