[GNC] Input validation issue on investment accounts when changing number format.

[S. John Banner]

I recently moved countries from the Netherlands (which uses a number format like "1.234,56") to Portugal (which uses a number format like "1,234.56"), and for completeness, at the same time I moved from a Windows PC to a Mac M1. Everything seems to have moved over just fine, I can use the Portuguese number convention everywhere, except that when I try to buy/sell shares from my investment account, I can't enter a fractional amount of shares - well, not simply. The input field insists that I use a "," for the decimal separator, then strips it out because the system decimal separator is a "." giving a large whole number of shares rather than a smaller fractional number. Everything displays correctly, except while I am editing a number in that specific column (in all the accounts I have tried).
I can actually work around this, by entering something like "1234/1000" when I want "1.234", and that works correctly, but it's a silly way to have to do the entry.

I did try "fix accounts", on the off chance that might help, but no difference.

This is using Build ID: 4.13+(2022-12-17) on my new Mac M1. If someone knows how to fix this, that would be great, but I expect it will have to wait for a bug fix.
