OK, I can always get around this stuff by writing my own formatter or 
extending an existing one, but I naively expect the number and currency 
formatters (say precision 2), to format "0.23" as "0.23" rather than ".23". 
Similarly I expect "-0.23" to be formatted as "-0.23" and not return "-.23".

I know there's ways round this, but I find this formatting default odd. Even 
if it were popular in some quarters (is it?), I'd at least expect the 
classes supplied by Adobe to allow the choice of having the formatter 
generate that leading 0 or not.

Is it just me that finds this odd? Am I right to expect that zero in front 
of the decimal point?
