Yet still it's shows 0 KB in Java; all other sizes are showed with one digit 
after the decimal point, thus only 0 KB has special handling. It's different 
from the native system, and I am for consistency in Java approach. If we 
decided, we show the size as #.# where there's always a digit after the decimal 
point, I'd rather see it always displayed. It would be easier to scan the sizes.

I wonder how the file size of 200 bytes is shown: 1 KB or 0.2 KB.
