So... any chance to actually be able to type comma as decimal separator?
It's very annoying to have to manually convert it every time. It impacts different queries, including currency conversions.

Converting currency with a decimal comma fails and gives a buggy looking result.

For example, "123,45 USD in EUR" fails although "123.45 USD in EUR" works.

In Europe, the decimal comma is used instead of a decimal point.
