A stricter numeric text validator?

Yes, range is supported in new version.

If value comes from a wxTextCtrl, it comes from a string.
Converting into a number is beyond user input.
If value is read from a file, socket, etc. you must first
know how the number is stored (IIEE, string, formatted string,...)
and then convert it.
How can you avoid the additional work?

If you just need a quick check (not formmated/localized)
take a look at QCheck in forstnu.cpp from wxFormatValidator.
