improve inputs, with the best of html5

5

I’ve been playing around with the Accessibility widget lately to utilize the most of HTML 5, and especially on the default input widget is a lot possible. think of:

Especially the touch keyboards are very beneficial, because having a traditional keyboard on your phone for a numeric value is just frustrating. Would be nice if Mendix automatically assigns those attributes based on the parameter, instead of the default type=’text’.

Second to that, having DateTime available in a input widget would be nice, as for example the chrome datetime picker is a lot quicker to select a specific date and time compared to the mendix widget. Ofcourse based on parameters there should be a property to switch the type (DateTime-local, month, week, time).
