Basically, with the C locale, it changes 1000.00 to 1,000.00, so indeed
is does add a numeric separator. For a European locale, 1000.00 becomes
1.000,00. so in that case is changes both the separator and decimal
marker. We don't currently have a way to display 1000.00 as 1000,00.
I am thinking of calling it just numericlocale.
