Just found out that email replies do not make it into bugzilla. So...

Eike is correct that HTML has no locale, but there may be a language associated.

And that language can be associated with a locale by the same way that was
proposed to associate a language/locale of ooo to a system locale.

Eike also wrote that there may be differences between the same language in
different countries, for example in Switzerland they are suposed to use comma as
the thousands separator, while in France they are supposed to use period.

That sounds strange to me, but anyway you can say that your HTML is
suissefrançais by giving it the language code 'fr-ch' - which is a valid RFC
3066 code, and then associate to the locale fr_CH from that.

Anyway, I am just asking to provide one more option, the option to use the
source language as defining the thousands and decimal delimiters.
                                                                               
                                         
I can understand if this would not be the default choice in 2.00, but IMHO
there are good theroretical and practical reasons for this to exist, and
even to be the desired default. If we just make it an option, then we
can try it out, and get some experience with it.
