> HtmlInputSpinner completely loses the plot if it has a Converter attached that formats the number.
> For example, a Converter that formats the number from 1234 to $1,234.00 or 1234%. As soon as you click a spinner button, the value jumps to, say, 9E+2 or something, which I assume is a result of failure to parse the number. I appreciate that because the 'spinning' is client-side and JavaScript based it does not have access to the Converter to help it parse the number.
> However, it would be great to have some level of support such as:
> BEST: support formatted numbers directly (eg. HtmlInputSpinner.setNumberPattern)
> STILL GOOD: strip non-numeric characters when parsing the number (eg. $ and % and ,)
> OKAY: grab the original value server-side, pre-going through the Converter, and use that to drive the spinner's JavaScript (being wary, of course, if the user edits the value manually by typing in the text box)
