@regina
but why is this bug report marked as 'ENHANCEMENT'?  I would say that a program
that changes a number like '13.2' into a date and a postcode into a currency
value must not just be enhanced but corrected...

and by the way if this issue is corrected according to the interpretation of
andr55, you can also close issue 87999 (marked as DEFECT).

@egle
what would Lithuanians type that they expect to be interpreted as their
currency?  same question regarding zip codes.  would it be case sensitive? 
aren't there in Lithuania people who -like me- seldom use capital letters?

exponential notation is something that makes me cautious: maybe in the solution
to this series of bugs it would be best to offer switching on/off automatic
interpretation of formatted data per format.  maybe also offer adding/removing
formats (I mean: list of formats has variable length) and allowing the user to
specify the conversion rules.  selecting national settings would activate the
standard list of rules for that nation and no other (built in) rules would be
applied.
