I can see your point, but there are so many issues about formatting a 
float that I think a tool would be needed.

there is a MathTool in the tools package
(http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-velocity-tools/tools/src/java/org/apa
che/velocity/tools/tools/) that can be used to deal with floats w.r.t  basic
math, rounding, etc.  if there are other functions you would like to see
added or if you would like a separate tool to deal more with the formatting
side of things, you can get things started by making a clear proposal or
sending a patch or code.
