Comment(by rwh):

 Replying to [comment:1 jg]:
 > Reinier,  I also note that lots of people (at least three) including a
 teacher have complained about the use of the "/" symbol, wanting a divide
 by symbol instead (dots above and below a dash).  A lot of this behavior
 needs to be modifiable for full localization.

 This issue has been taken care of, or at least moved to a different place.
 There are translatable tokens mul_sym and div_sym, so it can be configured
 through pootle. However, the default is still * and /. Of course I could
 change this if the overall feeling is that this is more appropriate.

 Yoshiki: I didn't think of this problem. Perhaps it is better to remove
 support for ',' separators again, as it will get harder to parse functions
 with multiple arguments then. For example, pow(2,3,0) would be
 impossible... What do you think?
