The code in this file has been disabled in the GUI for some time...and I doubt
it would now work correctly.

This avoids requiring a LocaleGuard to get the correct numeric formatting and
saves/restores the automation data to the precision required for roundtrip
equality.
Possible issue with numeric formatting using std::streams in locales with
grouping. Although I don't think it would be an issue in this case use locale
independant alternative for numeric formatting anyway.
string_compose uses std::ostream/stringstream which will insert thousands
separators in some locales. This was not a problem when LocaleGuard set the
global C++ locale to "C"
std::ostream/stringstream will use the current locale to determine the numeric
formatting. If the locale uses grouping then thousands separators will be
inserted in the output which produces an invalid color string in
UIConfiguration::reset_gtk_theme() and when converting colors to strings in
UIConfiguration::store_color_theme()
This has not been a problem so far because it appears that LocaleGuard does not
reset the LC_NUMERIC value for the global C++ locale. So if a LocaleGuard is
created at any time before these functions are called(even if it goes out of
scope) the numeric formatting used by std::streams will use the "C" locale
formatting facets.
These are now unused and functionality is replaced by XMLNode::set_property
set_property is a better name as a node can only have properties with unique
names and the property will be set or reset(if it already exists). Changing the
name also makes it easier to transition and test the new API.
