I admit that for a program like Emacs, this distinction is not always easy to 
make because program code is part of its user interface.  But I think that 
most cases can be decided using common sense.  Does the Emacs Lisp language 
contain localized numbers?  No, it does not.  Hence, (* 0,25 1,3) is not a 
valid Lisp expression, even undder a German locale.  But when Emacs prints a 
message like "Your disk is 23.4% full." in the local language, then I would 
also expect the number 23.4 to be localized.

However, I have yet to see a localized message from Emacs.
