Description:
The expression language cannot handle numbers starting with a . for example .9   0.9 can be handled though.
There is a test-case for this  .9 < 1.0, so it is supposed to work, but it is just an accident that the test passes, because the lookup of .9 returns null, which is smaller than 1.0.
I have a patch for this that I'll commit because it is also important now when the syntax ./someProperty is allowed. Otherwise unnecessary number format exceptions will be thrown and swallowed.
