(Get the code!)
This is clearly a bug and should be assigned a higher importance as it affects the majority of all Barcode scanners even correctly set to "France" . Most of them especially the cheaper ones need the windows way of CAPSLOCK to read numbers and not letters eg
4007862016251
and not
'ààè_-éà&-é(&
or
'ÀÀÈ_-ÉÀ&-É(&
And as Zeugma said, many people have the (maybe bad) habit to use CAPSLOCK instead of shift for numbers or even worse they work with CAPSLOCK on all the time ( and type SHIFT for small letters )
