Neither of those strictly meets the stated format. '0.12345678' is missing
the + which is explicit in the format and '+0.1234567' does not have 8
decimal places. Only '+.12345678' has a length of 10, 8 decimal places, and
the required sign. I realize this definitely an edge case, but it was
encountered in real life.

Thanks again for the careful consideration of this issue.
