Yes. In vt7 the fields (in DetailView at least) are marked up like this:

> <td class="fieldValue " id="LSSvcSVS_detailView_fieldValue_svc_charges">
>   <span class="value" data-field-type="currency">
>     <span class="currencyValue">0</span>
>   </span>
>   <span class="hide edit pull-left">
>   <input class="fieldBasicData" data-name="svc_charges" data-type="currency" data-displayvalue="0" data-value="0.00" type="hidden">
>   </span>
>   <span class="action pull-right">
>     <a href="#" onclick="return false;" class="editAction fa fa-pencil">
>     </a>
>   </span>
> </td>
