Re: Strange issue displaying numbers when in Arabic locale

Thanks Lukasz,

I'll submit a ticket and the fix we finally went with. We ended up going 
with interceptor params to implement. We made small changes to 3 files:

 1. LocaleProvider interface
 2. DefaultLocaleProvider
 3. I18nInterceptor

It's been working well in our prod environment.

Z.
