Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

According to my bug report 'Localization of decimal separator', unexperienced users typed in a coma separator as thousands separtor in german.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to allow a thousands separator for larger numbers. This should be possible in edit mode of row, as well as in list view.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction

Start by reading the linked localization issue #1570, then locate the value-field edit flow and the list-view rendering in the JavaScript app. Determine how German number input and display are handled; done means larger numbers accept and show a thousands separator consistently in both edit mode and list view.
