Comment (by pbearne):

 the reason we wrote this was we were trying to write Unit test like this

 {{{#!php
 <?php
         function test_number_format_i18n_custom_separator() {
                 global $wp_locale;
                 $wp_locale->number_format['decimal_point'] = '@';
                 $wp_locale->number_format['thousands_sep'] = '^';

                 $this->assertEquals( '1^000 at 00', number_format_i18n(
 1000.00, 2 ) );
                 $this->assertEquals( '1^000 at 00', number_format_i18n(
 (int)1000, 2 ) );
                 $this->assertEquals( '1^234^567^890 at 00000',
 number_format_i18n( 1234567890.00, 5 ) );
                 $this->assertEquals( '1^234^567^890 at 99999',
 number_format_i18n( 1234567890.99999, 5 ) );
                 $this->assertEquals( '1^234^567^890 at 50000',
 number_format_i18n( 1234567890.5, 5 ) );
                 // clear $wp_locale
                 $wp_locale = null;
         }
 }}}

 and have no way to swap the locale other than just setting it which feels
 wrong
