[OFBiz] Users - customers and orders with multiple currencies

[David Jones]

There are a few known issues with multiple currencies in the Order 
Manager and other places. For the most part these haven't been made 
multi-currency aware at all. One good thing to look for is that 
anywhere the FreeMarker "string.currency" built-in is being used you 
can be 99% sure that the currency on the page is messed up. Instead of 
that, and because the FreeMarker guys don't think it's too important to 
have a convenient built-in to handle multi-currency issues, we have 
added a transform for this, which is used pretty extensively in 
ecommerce, just not in the Order Manager or certain other places yet.

For a Party I don't know if there is a place to store this, but I agree 
it would be nice to store the Party's preferred Locale and Currency.
