#1936: PIN entry should default to numeric input
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------

-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
I got a new Freerunner, updated to the 2008.8 release and wanted to use
it.
After starting up the PIN dialog presented only lower case letters. I
think in almost all cases PINs are numeric. So it would be much more
userfriendly, if you could default to numeric input.
Some more rant:
I did not see any clue how to switch to numeric input. After despairingly
clicking around I was finally switching off my Freerunner and wanted to
throw it away. After some googling I read all the documentation about the
Openmoko keyboard and finally are able to use it but I really do not like
it.
I seriously doubt that hiding essential features behind "gestures"
(switching input modes, whitespace, backspace) is a terrible idea and will
make most end users hate you...
Setting Severity to major because this bug makes the Openmoko essentially
unusable for normal users.
