Quirk in World.NumberDialog() Function

I noticed that when using this function to enter a value less than 1, that the NumberDialog() function will return a zero if the number does not start with a zero..

So, entering .04 returns 0.0
and, entering 0.04 returns 0.04

Most users would not think to add the leading zero.
