Limitations of the provided locale formats

==========================================



Some locales use context-sensitive formats for numbers, which Djangos

localization system cannot handle automatically.





Switzerland (German)

--------------------



The Swiss number formatting depends on the type of number that is being

formatted. For monetary values, a comma is used as the thousand separator and

a decimal point for the decimal separator, for all other numbers, a comma is

used as decimal separator and a space as thousand separator. The locale format

provided by Django uses the generic separators, a comma for decimal and a space

for thousand separators.
