The IntegerType supports floats, but as the name suggests it should only accept integers, i.e. whole numbers.
The NumberType supports floats, locale specific numeric strings (e.g. "40,000") etc.
I propose a change to these 2 types:
IntegerType: should be used for whole integers as the name suggestsNumberType: should be used for floats (rendering as an input[type="number"]), and have a new option (support_locale_strings or something similar) so that it renders as input[type="text"] and has the relevant attached NumberToLocalizedStringTransformer.
This is obviously a BC break so marked it for 3.0.
