So you are saying that interfaces should use dots, commas, whatever is locally defined, but files should always be in dots. I am not sure I agree with this.
My users are actively encouraged to read and modify XML and other text-based formats, and it looks quite odd to force users to edit files in dots, while at the same time they are allowed to use whatever they like in the interface. Or are you advocating that text file editors should show dot decimal separators as commas, when locale is comma-based? apparently that is not the case with Vim and Xemacs, in Gnome, in Fedora 8, I just checked.
