In English.

For example, the comma in France is used for "10,5" as in 10.5 (21/2).
And the space is used as a separator 11 222 333,44
A good source for different conventions depending on the locales.

etc.
I wonder if it would not be more flexible to have a `format` attribute.
<input type="number" format="%Y"/>
