Matthias Weßendorf resolved MYFACES-1890.
-----------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.2.4-SNAPSHOT

Fixed in Trunk.
Since the RI also made this change, there will be no problem regarding the TCK.
(since now the NumberConverter always returns a BigDecimal).
Not a big deal, since that guy becomes faster and faster.
EL engine is also able to "convert" to double, etc, since BigDecimal implements java.lang.Nummer as well

> Due to a potential bug in BigDecimal there is a bug, when you use BigDecimal
> with a NumberConverter.
> Like
> <tr:inputText value="#{bean.number}" ...>
>   <tr:convertNumber />
> </tr:inputText>
> For instance, when the entered value is "333.111" the actual stored value is 333.1109999999999899955582804977893829345703125
> There is a mathematic explanation for that in here:
