ThousandSeparator with leading zeros

The thousandSeparator is also added if your number starts with leading zeros. Consider the following (standard) configuration:

<NumberFormat thousandSeparator="," decimalSeparator="." />

When you enter 0123 it will be displayed as 0,123

The problem that arises with this is that we have some users who want to enter a decimal point as a comma (,). So you type:

• 0: The field now shows 0
• ,: The field still shows 0
• 1: The field shows 01
• 2: The field shows 012
• 3: The field now shows 0,123

If you don’t pay close attention, you get the feeling that you correctly entered 0.123. Only after the next blur event, you will see that you actually entered 123.

So the question is: Would it be possible to only append the thousandSeparator in places where the value is actually bigger than a thousand, discounting leading zeros?

That would mean that 0123 would be displayed as 0123 rather than 0,123.

Frankly, it seems to work for numbers with more than 4 characters, as 01234 is correctly displayed as 01,234.

In npm it was already there. Added it on releases as well.

Agree, The thousand separator should ignore leading zeros. Will fix this.
