Original issue MVC_SPEC-65 created by Christian Kaltepoth:
The MVC data binding mechanism should be locale aware. That's especially important for decimals and dates. We could address this by providing special ParamConverters for MVC requests which use the request locale mechanism for parsing decimals and dates.
This way we could also fix the problem that binding HTML checkboxes to booleans is problematic because the default JAX-RS converter for booleans doesn't handle "selected" as expected.
I'll send a more detailed proposal to the list in the next days.
