Bug Description

When using "inputMethodHints: Qt.ImhDigitsOnly" in an SDK TextField, I get a keyboard that includes a hyphen, a space, a period, and a plus (with extended # and * on the plus).

That looks more like a keyboard I'd expect for Qt.ImhFormattedNumbersOnly.

But I only asked for digits!

Adding a maliit task, because it contains the following piece of code, which just seems broken to me:

    if (hints == Qt::ImhFormattedNumbersOnly || hints == Qt::ImhDigitsOnly) {
        type = Maliit::NumberContentType;
    }

Thus ubuntu-keyboard never has the information it needs to show the right keyboard.

Changing this in maliit would presumably mean adding a new contentType, which all maliit consumers would have to support (or suffer breakage)... :(
