Steps to reproduce:
Create an input field of type number, like: <input type="number">. Type words into the resulting field.
Actual results:
The field allows arbitrary text.
Expected results:
According to:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/number
this should do the same thing as Chromium browers and disallow input of anything that's not a numberal (or at least a mathematical symbol associated with numbers, since Chromium semi-oddly allows 'e').

Why? We allow to input localized numbers, it's not always quite trivial to determine what's a number in that case, fwiw... :)
Anyhow we have bug 1398528 tracking this.
