769259 - Don't switch back to the alphabetic keyboard after typing a single number in url bar.

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Keyboards and IME, defect)

Description

[Blake Winton (:bwinton) (:☕️)]

Sorry about the long-winded summary.

Scenario:
I want to find out how far 22 km is in miles.

Steps to reproduce:
Launch Fennec native (16.0a1 2012-06-24, although it's been happening for a while) on my Galaxy Nexus.
Tap the url bar.
Type "21".

Expected result:
"21" appears in the url bar.

Observed result:
"2q" appears in the url bar.

Observed cause:
The keyboard (stock, I believe) switched from numeric mode back to alphabetic mode after I typed the "2", before I typed the "1".


Thanks,
Blake.
