Number type textfield updates model incorrectly

[nikoTM]

As can be seen here, when setting a new value on type="number" textfield, type of the model changes from number to string.

will be fixed in the next release.

notes how to fix: because the original input is wrapped by a ControlValueAccessor that is not a NumberValueAccessor the value is not converted back to the type required by the type attribute. In set value the passed in value needs to be converted to a number (parseFloat) if the type is number.
