--- Comment #5 from Charles McCathieNevile <chaals@yandex-team.ru> ---
For a start, the statements in the url and email types that input is set to the
user's locale make no sense. The primary use case for such inputmodes is where
essentially latin text is expected, but the user's locale is a non-latin
script, e.g. arabic, cyrillic, greek…
Likewise, telephone numbers outside the US commonly require the "+" character
to be available. Meanwhile, there are two common mappings of letters to numbers
- and in any event the text doesn't give much of a clue about what to *do* with
the fact that Americans are used to having phone numbers that are spelled out
with words (or even that this is the actual use case - being able to use
information like "dial 1-800-for-5off to comment", or somesuch).
