Constant floating numbers shown in the user interface must be translatable

Do Drupal core modules show floating numbers with a comma, when Drupal is localized in German, or Italian?

I can't find any example in the translations.

Then, what do third-party modules do?

This has been fixed in CVS.

Brainstorming here...what if... we used the following code for the priority options:

  foreach (range(0, 1, 0.1) as $option) {
    $option = number_format($option, 1);
    $options[$option] = t($option);
  }

And then created an xmlsitemap.translations.inc file that is *only* used so that the strings will be picked up by the translation template extracter:

// $Id$

t('0.0');
t('0.1');
t('0.2');
t('0.3');
t('0.4');
t('0.5');
t('0.6');
t('0.7');
t('0.8');
t('0.9');
t('1.0');

Would this work? I'm going to try it out.

Actually, it worked! :)

I've implemented the workaround method used by date and event in the 6.x-2.x branch. See http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=215524.

The only problem will be if you use potx.module to create the translation template file, which would not include those strings, and report you that you are using a variable in a call to t().
