But aren't most of those non-ASCII digits still Arabic numbers?
Don't most people -- even in other languages -- enter numbers in

No, some locales use non-ASCII digits, particularly Arabic and
Indic languages.
So what's the most modern, recommended, Unicode-savvy way to
convert a text string into a numeric value? CFNumberFormatter?
