Hi all,

instead of having the comma as a decimal mark in all the regexps 
offered by the customization interface of `org-table-number-regexp',
I added the comma for a new choice, which has the most liberal
definition for what is a number.

Using this regexp as the default will confuse the users: if they see
"4,3" is aligned as a number, they will expect it to be treated as a
number.

This is not the case for ">3.5": even when such string is aligned as a
number, the user can clearly see by herself that this cannot be part of
an arithmetic operation.

I think the new option offered solves this issue.

Best,
