This is an issue, as this was added without any documentation and no
real need. Adding an additional dependency on a PHP-module and thus
breaking existing installations after upgrading doesn't seem very
user-friendly, just to be able to check if a text is a number, as its
done on the referred line. It could also be done with a simple regexp.

In my opinion it would be best to change the referred call in future
TYPO3 versions.
