AbstractLuhnValidator and EANValidator perform unnecessary calculations in some circumstances
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HV-34
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-34
             Project: Hibernate Validator
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: validators
            Reporter: WATANABE Takashi
            Priority: Trivial
         Attachments: 20070710_2205.patch.txt

There are decimal digits other than ASCII ones.
e.g. full width digits(from \uff10 to \uff19)

So if a Japanese customer(or someone) entered full width digits,  the current AbstractLuhnValidator and EANValidator would  perform some unnecessary calculations.

BTW, I think I'm going to use them with something like  @Pattern(regex="^\\d*$", message="Must be ASCII digits")
and @NotNull.
Becase I don't like my customers to enter full width digits
rather than ASCII ones.

Otherwise, it might be possible for them to handle all decimal
digits in the world(Unicode).
Then, I would use them with @Pattern(regex="^\\d*$") anyway ;-)
